Random Building Thoughts - 2023-12-20

 

-------------- ONE GOOD MAN --------------

Better to sit with one Good Man
who consistently takes action
to Better himself
than a room filled
with those men who consistently demonstrate
that wearing a ring
is thought good enough.

 -------------- MASONIC EDUCATION--------------
 
 
 -------------- PROOF --------------
 

If your Overall Experience within the Society
has not Trained you
to Demand Proof of what is Claimed,
you Slept through the Lessons.

-------------- BENT --------------


There are some Brothers
so bent upon Believing
a Deliberately Fabricated definition
made up by a group of men
some 300 years ago
that they will consciously close their minds
to an Actual definition
used several centuries before.

For An Example:
The Hole Story

-------------- THAT RELIGION! --------------

It's right there,when you know how to read.

"...that Religion in which all Men agree...
...that is, to be good Men and true,
or Men of Honour and Honesty..."

-- Bro. Anderson

 -------------- BLINDED --------------

Brothers Blinded by Light
make for very Dangerous
Traveling Companions. 

 -------------- COACH'S CHALLENGE --------------

 
Ashlar
 
Hewn or squared stone;
also, masonry made of squared or hewn stone.

 Common Ashlar

"Rough ashlar,
a block of freestone as brought from the quarry.
When hammer-dressed
it is known as common ashlar
." [1913 Webster]
 
So here's the question:

Based upon the above definition,
when you take your Common Gavel
and you hammer-dress your rough ashlar,
what is it then called?
 
(I'll wait...)

For Further Light:

-------------- ABUNDANT LIGHT --------------

Freemasonry Offers
Abundant Light that is
Seen by many,
Misunderstood too often
& Occasionally Understood by few. 

 -------------- EXPRESSION --------------


How does your Overlap Express Itself?

For Further Light:
Freemasonry and Masonry

-------------- CONSEQUENCES --------------

A Man's Resistance to Light
may be a Clear Indication
that he may not want to
Accept its Consequences.

 -------------- REVIEW --------------


"Having a great time
waiting to fly out for the holidays,
thanks to some excellent reading material;
it is absolutely captivating!
 
Thank you W. Brother Nick! 
 
Looks like I now know
what to ask of Santa this Christmas...
the entire series. 
 
Well done Brother John!"
-- M:.W:.B:. John May,

(And thank YOU!, MW John!)
 
 

-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION ALSO --------------

 

-------------- END --------------

 Be Well and Travel Light!
