So often, I block out the schedule to do other, more specific things - i.e., working, writing, memorization, and meeting attendance - so I thought there should be some time devoted to reflection, contemplation and gratitude. <br /><br />I will keep you posted on how successful I am.

Obligations for rehearsals for Scottish Rite/Shrine, coupled with Blue Lodge, work, and family have me missing "quality time" with any of them. For instance, I'm in the same boat as you now - spending every waking moment trying to cram memorization in for ritualistic work.<br /><br />It's brutal.<br /><br />I think this is an important key to what we should be doing, and one that my TO Lodge (Ad Lucem) practices when we take time to reflect on the previous month's discussion during a meeting. The space between gives us time to consider the true impact of what we learned. Well done, Brother!Todd Ballengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02718346237543149498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4190783581629275956.post-72285578567271003972012-11-22T08:23:20.007-05:002012-11-22T08:23:20.007-05:00Bro.
