Good People and really special: Extreme and balance

                                                              Extremes

          Have you wonder why things so difficult and challenging to live on planet earth  ? Extremes.
Weather,partisan politics,religious movement,nations and many others.What is the secret of happiness and peace ? God and simplicity.


                                                                 Balance

          The Freemasons have been misunderstood for centuries as a secret society and they are aiming for world dominations.None of the above is accurate.It so happened that Freemasonry have "trade secrets" just like any other organizations and many Freemasons are "leaders in their respective field" does not make them "conquerors".Freemasonry started in Europe centuries ago.The early Lodges are in Scotland,England and Massachusetts ,USA .A few million members covers almost the world.The Freemasons are not religious zealots and Masonry is not a religion.Freemasonry is not competing with organized religion.Freemasonry 
welcomes everyone who believes in the Supreme Being (God).Regardless of one's religious belief or affiliation,Freemasonry welcomes You.Freemasons are really special people because they remain anonymous if ever they lend a helping hand.Did you know that the Shriner Hospitals (22) was founded by Freemasons, are  supported by Freemasons and non-freemasons (donors and healthworkers etc.) ? 
There are 20 Shriners Hospitals for children in the U.S., and one each in Canada and Mexico. All care and services at Shriners Hospitals are provided at no charge regardless of financial need or relationship to a Shriner.Famous Shriners (Freemasons): Buzz Aldrin (Astronaut), Arnold Palmer (Golfer), Sam Hornish, Jr., (Race Car Driver), Gerard Ford (President), John Wayne and Richard Tyson (Actors), Brad Paisley (Country Singer), John Diefenbaker (Prime Minister of Canada)

         Unconditionl friendship is one of the Freemasons ideals.Freemasons are people from all walks of life.
