Random Building Thoughts - 2024-02-19

 

 -------------- THINK! -------------- 
 
 
Freemasonry Invites you to Think; 
Masonry Forces you to, 
Willingly.
 
For Further Light:
 
  -------------- MASONIC EDUCATION -------------- 
 
 
Enjoy!
 
 -------------- HUMOR --------------
 

 -------------- PROPER DIRECTION -------------- 
 
FILED UNDER: PROPERLY DIRECT YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE!
 
A missing Component in some Masonic Investigations is having the petitioner disclose in a concise and revealing way what he perceives to be "Betterment". 
 
When this is not disclosed upfront, he is likely to blindly wander the Freemasonic Landscape unknowingly bumping into one Improvement opportunity after another without taking advantage of them in any way. 
 
To Improve Improvement Opportunities, Investigation members would do well to have the potential Brother lay out a Foundation during the Interview as to what he Visualizes Betterment to be.
Yes, this Vision shall change with Further Light and that's not the point or an issue. Giving him opportunities to pro-actively think is! 
 
A Purposeless Quest is non-hunger driven eating; it serves no good purpose. 
 
For Further Light:
Betterment!
 
  -------------- REALITY --------------

 
and neither does lodge attendance...
 
 -------------- HARMONY? -------------- 
 
 
The Rubbish Sweeper 
should never be Confused with 
or Wrongfully Used as 
a Broom of Harmony.
 
-------------- PSA -------------- 
  

"I have no use for stupid atheists. 
Of course, 
I have no use for stupid theists either. 
Both are fairly easy to spot too. 
They are usually found arguing 
with each other."
 
-------------- ETCHED! -------------- 

 
The Book upon the Altar 
Represents no less than the Sacred Text 
Etched within your Heart. 
Exercise any Behavior that 
Conflicts with what you Profess 
is within these Writings 
and your Library is surely Empty. 
 
   -------------- YUP! -------------- 
 

(Hat tip to Brother David Moran!)

  -------------- PRELUDE... -------------- 
 
 
Learning is not your Opus. 
It is your Prelude to Doing Better,
 Further Learning and Teaching others!
 
-------------- FIT YET? -------------- 
 
 
 
Let me say it to you straight son:
 If you Join a Gym to Build your Muscles 
or to Increase your Tone, 
and there exists No Program that Provides 
or Requires you to Exercise, 
how Insane would you have to be to Remain a Member?
 
(with continual apologies to the Doctor!)
 
  -------------- MEN FROM BOYS -------------- 
 
FILED UNDER: SEPARATING MEN FROM BOYS!

The Challenge Freemasonic Ritual presents to all Brothers who Seriously Perpend what it offers is that it's Fundamentally a "What To Do" rather than a "How To Do" series of Road Maps. 
 
This is Purposeful for it takes a Mature Proactive Heart and Mind to take the Necessary Steps to figure out "How To Do" and thus make "What To Do" occur. 
 
Those who fail to meet this Challenge may never begin to realize of What they are missing out. 
 
The Challenge also Distinguishes engaged mature Builders from passive immature Members.
 
For Further Light:
What it Takes!
 
  -------------- CHANGE! --------------  


Change: 
What you get in Return 
for Paying more for Something 
than What Was Demanded of you 
to Obtain it.  
 
 -------------- DO IT! -------------- 
 
  -------------- END --------------  

 Be Well and Travel Light!
