Well we enjoyed another fine roast beef dinner at the Otisville lodge Saturday evening. Also, had some good fellowship with a few brothers. WB Gil in between working and eating shared his thoughts about "upright step" as in.....one upright regular step.
If you search out the definition for upright you will find that it can and does mean; marked by strong moral rectitude, honorable, just, honest, having or showing strict regard for what is morally right.
No doubt about it WB Gil did his homework on this one word. He also added that the fraternity only asks the man to make an upright "regular" step. In other words the fraternity is not asking for a giant step or one prescribed to a certain dimension but just a regular step with all good intentions toward the business one is about to embark.
Brothers, there is so much knowledge out there that it can boggle the mind. The unfortunate part is that much of the knowledge is not spread because of lack of questions and lack of discussion. So, the next time you go to a routine Masonic dinner add a little conversation to your meal and feed not only your body but your mind as well.
