Random Building Thoughts - 2022-12-10

 

-------------- PROMOTION NEWS! --------------

(Hat tip to Bro. Mike Braun!)

-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION --------------

-------------- PATIENCE --------------

Patience is a Virtue 

that Demands Actions be Taken 

Supportive of an Eventual End.

-------------- PREPARATION --------------

 

Men who Forgo Preparatory Work
in Favor of Mental Pleasurings
are even more likely to Dismiss and Attack you
for Pointing This Out.

(You know who they are!)

-------------- RUFFIANS --------------

Ruffian – Any and all of the arrogant sub-classes of men who:

 

 1) wrongfully assume that they are rightfully entitled to benefits that are typically warranted only by appropriate merits, 

 

 2) demand such benefits aggressively and without waver,

 

 3) damage others in their passionate pursuits, and

 

 4) consider it absolutely acceptable to bury their mistakes in an effort to outrun their earned accountabilities. They are viewed as inconsistently moral, dangerously uncivil, and blatantly superficial individuals.

-------------- ONE-SENTENCE --------------

 

A Brother Asks: Brethren, If you have one sentence

 to share knowledge and advice for the brethren on this page, 

what would it be?

 

Coach: Do all the Work that Ritual directs Freemasons to do, 

without waiver or hesitation, 

starting with the First Degree

 and progressing through to the Third. 

shall be amazed at your Transformation!

-------------- REMINDER --------------

 

I disagree.
Had you written "Bodaciously Awesome"
I would have no need to comment further.

 

  -------------- VEILED TRUTHS --------------

 

The Problem with Fabricating History
is that You’ll have some Unfortunate Souls
Believing it with others Congratulating them for doing so.

Consequently,
your True Troubles Occur
when it becomes so Unbelievable
that you get push back from those who know Better.

The Challenge is getting everyone on the same page
so the Fabrications are not taken
to be Purposeful Lies
But Masterfully Veiled Truths.

 -------------- BLUNT TRUTH --------------

 -------------- MASONIC EDUCATION --------------

Just a reminder...
these are but 9 of 16 offerings...

 Now, there are 7 more!

-------------- MUSIC MEETS MASHUPS --------------

 -------------- TCU REVIEW --------------

 "Inside 'The Craft Unmasked',
Brother Nagy exposes the face behind
the 3 masks of Masonry:

What we think it is,
what we say it is
and what it is.

He provides a pragmatic and honest examination
of what the Craft does
and connects its roots
to a completely different origin
than we have been told.

His findings are well-researched and documented.
They will leave most readers content
as he proves how his thesis falls directly in line
with how the Craft has always operated
and how it functions today.

A few Masonic traditionalists may find this book
an affront against Masonic traditions.

Most will find themselves enlightened
and thinking 'I knew it all along.'”
