  -------------- PLAY --------------

-------------- AWARENESS --------------

At first, I thought I was alone...
 
I didn't realize how many Brothers speak the same truth,
think the same thoughts, feel the same mix of emotions,
sing the same tunes and stand as tall. 
 
That changed once I began to talk, 
think, feel, sing and stand 
on my own. 
 
And as I did, 
we saw each other, 
standing tall together.
We heard each other.
We felt each other's presence.
We were in harmony in all our dearly held truths.

I realized all too soon that I was never alone; 
I was simply unaware.

-------------- SOPHROSYNE --------------

Sophrosyne (Greek: σωφροσύνη)

is an ancient Greek concept of an ideal
of excellence of character and soundness of mind,
which when combined in one well-balanced individual
leads to other qualities,
such as temperance, moderation, prudence,
and self-control.


Example:

When you're not a Sophrosyne
As you Pass to Fellow,
You Haven't Done the Work
of The Previous Degree!

-------------- BLACK-BELTS --------------

Ruffians are
Black-belts in
Arrogance, Ignorance and Aggressiveness.
Your Tolerance of them
is their Advantage.

  -------------- LODGE --------------

 -------------- HUMOR --------------

-------------- AUTHOR PROBLEMS --------------

I CAN RELATE!

-------------- REVEALING A SECRET -------------- 


"Revealing a Secret
So Apparent,
So Clear,
and So Obvious,
that No Known Freemasonic Body
Ever Dare to Share it
much less Discuss it."
