Random Building Thoughts - 2023-01-15

 

 -------------- OUR GOAL --------------

 For Further Light:
TELL-TALE SIGNS OF MATURITY!

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

 

-------------- IQ --------------

 

It's Amazing
how many Brothers Truly Believe
their Titles have Raised their IQ
along with their Overall Mastery of Life.
Earn Your Title!
Don't just give It Lip Service.

 "BE" the title you wear!

-------------- MORE EDUCATION --------------

"If Freemasonry is indeed a system
which teaches good men to be better,
then we better start having more education meetings
than degrees and business combined.
If we’re not doing this,
we’re just lip service."
 
For Further Light:

-------------- HUMOR --------------

Masonry:
A Worldwide Inspiracy
to Improve the World,
One Good Man at a Time.

For Further Light:
Good Men

-------------- THE SECRET --------------

Can you improve on this?

-------------- CLIFF NOTES --------------
 

Freemasonic Ritual: CliffsNotes
for True Progression
without any of that needless
Studying and Learning.

Know of what you speak! 
Understand it! 
Then BECOME it!

-------------- GATHERING LIGHT --------------


It is not Enough to Gather Light;
to Improve for the Better,
one must Employ it Properly
once Gathered.

...and for God's sake,
have goals and executable plans.

-------------- REVIEW --------------

"I started and finished the journeyman papers today.
At first I thought,
how does this touch on free masonry?
But I kept reading,
the stories were good,
the intertwining of stories was good,
and the more I read the more I enjoyed them.
The more I read
the more I thought deeper about them.
Then the end came.
The questions you asked,
well, ?? EUREKA!!!!
There it is,
the deeper thoughts
and trying to answer these questions,
that's how it relates to our fraternity.
Great book brother."

-- Bro. Scott Hall

  -------------- BASTARDS --------------

Bastardizing the Words of even one Brother
is Assuming the Mantle of an Illegitimate Creator
who Exists as the Very Thing that he Creates.

Take True Care
in how you represent
your Brothers' Words to Others.

-------------- ILL-PREPARATION -------------- 

It is Your Ill-Preparation
That Keeps You In The Dark 

Prepare Properly! 
Your Life Depends upon It!

-------------- THE TOOL --------------

When you Are Not The Tool
of what you Speak,
you missed the Whole Point
of Its Presentation.

 You ARE the Tool!
Be as Sharp as you can be!

-------------- HISTORY -------------- 
 

 How 13th Century Cistercian Monks conveyed numbers...

-------------- END -------------- 

 Be Well and Travel Light!
