Secrecy is both a Trusted red herring and gold Standard for those individuals who have done the Work; it is an Officious Target and Tyrannical Enslaver for those who have not. Without Work done, you'll view Secrecy as an evil and you'll blindly attempt to obtain its elusive bounty. With Work done, you'll see Secrecy as a Faithful Guardian whose first Discipline requires Building Word-Action Integrity by answering the question: Can you give your Word and keep true to It? Ultimately, you are known for who you are by your Attitude toward Secrecy; this is no Secret.

-------------- MYTH --------------
“Every moment is utterly unique and will not be continued in eternity.
This fact gives life its poignancy and should concentrate your attention
on what you are experiencing now.
I think that’s washed out a bit by the notion
that everyone will be happy in heaven.
You had better be happy here, now.
You’d better experience the eternal here and now.
Being 'happy with Him forever in heaven' means
that while you are here on earth you should be happy:
that is to say,
your life should be identified with the divine power,
the eternal power in all life.
If you concretize the symbol of heaven,
the whole situation disintegrates.
You think, for example,
that eternity is there,
and your life is here.
You believe that God,
the source of energy,
is there,
and you are here,
and He may come into your life
or He may not.
No, no—that source of eternal energy is here,
in you, now.”

The Shortcomings of the Craft are a direct reflection of Work not done.
When
your Word is Masterful, you can give It Masterfully and even the
Profane can Recognize It. Without Mastery though, you can only give
your word and even the Profane shall Recognize this.
The Master's Word requires Mastery. Work toward this End and your Word shall and will Be.
The Shortcomings of the Craft are a direct reflection of Work not done.
You'll not manifest Mastery chasing Superficial Ends.
Semantics is an important part of Trivial Masonic Studies that helps clarify Bogus Specifics.
Much
like Hydrogen Sulfide gas, the Higher the concentration of Bogus
Specifics, the more likely it shall go undetected until it terminates
the life it engulfs.
The Working Tools should be Mastered Speculatively and Applied Operatively upon our Ashlars.
The difference between Masters and non-masters is that when Master's foul up, it's a Beaut!
Masons
are not Role Models because they chose to be Role Models. They are
because What they have Chosen to Be is Worthy of Emulation.
Faith
is the conscious recognition, clear understanding and purposeful choice
to believe in likely occurrences of specific possibilities that
collectively appear to be highly improbable, to do so regardless of
supportive or dismissive evidence, and to place trust in specific
directions based upon that chosen belief.
