Random Building Thoughts - 2023-04-18

  

-------------- <SIGH>... ------------- 
 
 
<I wonder how many Brothers
will make a serious comment about this ;-) >

(Hat tip my Brother, for the abuse of his picture... you know who you are!)
 

Please don't make me post this meme in response to your serious comments...

-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION -------------  
 
 
-------------- ALL ABOUT... -------------  
 

Far too many Members 
use their membership status 
to belittle, dismiss and otherwise attack 
those ex-members who have moved on with their lives, 
for whatever reason. 
 
These attacking members have forgotten 
that it's not about membership 
and it never was! 
It was always about being BETTER MEN! 
 
-------------- RIGHTFUL CLAIM --------------  
 

Until you have truly put 
at least one Vice or Superfluity to rest, 
can you ever rightfully claim 
to have an in depth Working knowledge 
belonging to this aspect of Apprenticeship?
 
Don't preach to me 
unless you have 
SUCCESSFULLY done it yourself!

-------------- RIGHT CHOICES... --------------  
 
 
With great freedoms 
come great responsibilities
 and even greater liabilities. 
 
Make Right Choices, 
not quick or easy ones. 
  
-------------- ADVOCATE... --------------  
 

I am an advocate for Working upon my own Ashlar 
and leaving others to do the same for themselves. 
I need not concern myself otherwise 
nor should I desire to 
especially should I want to do any good whatsoever. 
 
That is a little something that I learned about Mastery. 
 It is something that one can only develop for oneself. 
 One cannot get it from another. 
 
Yes, I can provide feedback on Work done by another Brother, 
should he request it from me, 
but his Work still must be done 
for and by himself. 
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 
 
 There MUST be a private victory 
regarding Maturity 
that can only occur once one both 
Accepts Responsibility for one's own personal development 
and Cultivates an unwavering commitment 
to hold oneself Accountable for that Acceptance.
 
-------------- MYTH --------------  
 

That's been my experience!  
 
-------------- MYTH BUSTER --------------  
 

Hiram's Body Was Raised. 
 
If it was truly Resurrected, 
there would be Absolutely 
No Reason or Purpose 
for the "Other Word".
 
For Further Light:
 
 
 
-------------- GRACIOUSNESS --------------  
 
  
To be Bold in your Convictions 
requires an equally tempered 
Graciousness toward those 
stirred by your Boldness. 
 
-------------- WHY SEEK? --------------  
 

Why do I seek Light?
 
Because I've been in Darkness
and that experience tells me that
being in the Light is much better for me
and everyone involved.
 
-------------- WRITERS... --------------  
 

<Coach looks down his nose and through his 4 year old bifocals, contemplating deeply upon who has been playing narrator in his life and disclosing solemnly to the world deeply held secrets. Breathing a sigh, he hastily re-posts the narration meme anyway. 
 
"Why not!" he grumbles to himself. The world should know these truths.
 
He lets out a heavy breath and examines his work. 
 
"Fine job," he hears the disembodied voice say. 
 
He smiles ever so slightly and he moves on.>
 
(hat tip to Bro. Mason Pratt!)
 
-------------- PLAY ON... -------------- 


What is Freemasonry's true secret? 
Its practitioners put on a series of plays
 so well that their efforts mask the fact 
that they are putting on a series of plays.
 
For Further Light:
Plays...
 
 -------------- END -------------- 

 Be Well and Travel Light!
