WHAT IS A FREEMASON?

** NOTE ** This article is a conversation between a mother and her son and brings out information Freemasons should give their children. I recommend it for all the Freemasons, as a guide for enlightening their children about our noble fraternity.

Mom, please explain to me, with clarity, what is a Freemason?
Why are you interested in that, son?
Dad is a Mason and that I know.

The mother, with great tenderness, and affection, with her hands stroking her son’s hair, made him sit down by her side, and she began to narrate the true description of the husband who was a Freemason. “A Freemason, my son, is a well educated man; a man of good conduct, who does not allow any bad passion to vibrate in his heart, which doesn’t entertain even the least trace of any injustice or cruelty, but always seeks the truth and is a shining example of good conduct and honesty. In any case, he acts with fairness.

He considers the home, a Temple, and discharges his duties to his home. He is a specialist, who does not get tired of learning. He respects all opinions and is against all oppression, but he humbly extends a helping hand to the needy, practicing the noble virtue of charity.

He hates evil and is always ready to defend the virtuous and the oppressed. He helps the elderly and gives advice to youngsters. He forgives every offense.
He always strives to acquire perfection, with the full knowledge that no one is “without defects.”
In some way, my son, I believe I have defined the personality of a Freemason, because I drew for you, a picture of your Father.

The son, stood, leaned over, and kissed his mother gratefully, and whispered in her ear,” Mom, I am really proud, of my Dad.”
