Random Building Thoughts - 2023-10-20

 

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

FILED UNDER: 
Foolish Freemasonic Pride...
 
You've nothing to truly be proud of 
when you cannot apply outside the walls 
what was shared with you within the walls.
 
-------------- SSIB!--------------  
 
 
SO SMOTE IT BE!*

* Official Motto of 
The Universal Order of 
Fraternal Stone Whackers
 
For Further Light:
 
 
 -------------- ILLUMINATION --------------  
 
 
 
The organization is a collective. 
It points toward Illumination 
but it neither Illuminates 
nor supports Illumination. 
 
To expect it to do either 
 is to Abdicate Personal Responsibility. 
 
It shows doors and opens quite a few, 
but it is still the Responsibility of the Individual 
to walk through them.
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
  

When you're Handed a Title, 
Make Sure you have the Skills Commensurate 
with What the Title Truly Denotes.
  
-------------- TRAINING --------------  



There are Huge Differences 
between Insensitivity and Indifference. 
Perhaps those Intensely Insensitive to these Differences 
would Benefit from some Highly Targeted 
Intensive Indifference Training.

-------------- CHALLENGE --------------  
 
COACH'S CHALLENGE:
 
1) Draw distinctions between 
Power and Strength.

2) How are they connected?

3) What conclusions can your draw 
from your effort?
 
 
-------------- REVOLVE... --------------  
 
 
 Those Hyper-Sensitive 
to the Indifference of Others 
would Benefit Tremendously by Accepting that 
there are many Worlds that Revolve Nowhere around theirs. 
 
Woe to he who gets drawn into their Gravity well.
 
 -------------- ALLEGORY--------------  
 
 
 To grow new crops, 
one must accept that 
fields must be properly 
cleared, overturned and replanted.
 
-------------- IRONY --------------  
 
 
 
The Sad Irony of Political Correctness 
is its Outrageously Militant Insensitivity
 toward Widely Accepted Political Diversity 
Practiced by those who don't Embrace 
the Personally Accepted Narrow Minded Standards 
of Bigoted Humanitarians.
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 

Masonry Develops 
Your Mental Muscle
 
-------------- SELF-PROJECTS --------------  
 
 
You'll not Make any 
Legitimate Difference 
to men who have Already Dismissed 
your Shared Thoughts 
as the Disturbed Ravings of a Crazed Lunatic. 
 
Self-Projects like these are next to Impossible 
to Deal with Effectively.
 
Focus upon projects 
that will make a difference... 
 
-------------- MYTH --------------  
 
“Myth basically serves four functions. 
 
The first is the mystical function,... 
realizing what a wonder the universe is, 
and what a wonder you are, 
and experiencing awe before this mystery....
 
The second is a cosmological dimension, 
the dimension with which science is concerned 
– showing you what shape the universe is, 
but showing it in such a way that the mystery again comes through.... 
 
The third function is the sociological one 
– supporting and validating a certain social order.... 
It is the sociological function of myth that has taken over in our world
 – and it is out of date.... 
 
But there is a fourth function of myth, 
and this is the one that I think everyone must try today to relate to 
– and that is the pedagogical function, 
of how to live a human lifetime under any circumstances.”
Joseph Campbell, 
  The Power of Myth

-------------- HUH?!?!? --------------  
 
 

 Osmotic Freemasonry Preaches that 
Masonry Leaches and Bleeds over 
from one Brother to another 
therefore making the Leach and Bleedee Better 
for being in close enough Proximity to others 
to Reap their Rewards as one's own.
 
Who is leeching off of you? 
 
-------------- MAP?!?! --------------  
 

Are you a Traveling Man? 
Where's your Map? 
 
For Further Light:
-------------- EXPECTATIONS --------------  
 
 
 
When you want the support of this current generation of men, 
you must offer them something that they themselves value 
to a very high Degree 
and that Nurtures them such that 
none of them may ever go away dissatisfied.  

When you offer them anything less, 
you see less of them, 
for they already know 
what they can expect from you.
