POINTING OUT THE MYSTERY TO A MASON

Profane might rarely experience what a mason experiences whether together or after making his way home. Being true to his obligations, he exists in a constant state of vigilence. How can that be you say? How can anyone be aware every moment of every day?   The secret isn't so secret once you know it- but here it is-  It is likeing learning to have a bag full of goals. Some are short term, some are small, others are life goals and consume great energy. To be vigilent is to be mindful of what goal you are capturing in that moment. This is what we call awareness- enjoying what we do.  

If freemasonry has secrets, this is one out there for all to see; in a sense hidden in public until a passerby notices and begins to connect. We've made mistakes trying to understand what to do with it.We have manners that guard us against that.  Where we get blind sided is dealing with the illusion.  The illusion is about a quiet nature.  While brethren are preoccupied analyzing to understand, they may appear aloof, haughty.
