How You can Help! I cannot stress how important the following is to the success of Chivalry-Now — and it all depends on you! The simplest,
most effective way to advocate for our cause is to feel the pleasure
and enthusiasm that it brings. Attitudes
are contagious. In a world constantly adrift in moral ambiguity,
Chivalry-Now offers simple values, profound insights, the
wonder and pleasure of confronting life's mystery with a desire
to learn, and that special, in-the-moment completeness that is achieved
when reason and conscience sufficiently meld. Think of the
artistic and intellectual excitement of the Renaissance
or the Golden Age of Greece, when the empowerment
of the creative, inquiring mind defied institutionalized ignorance
and changed the world! This did not happen because someone thought
it was a good idea. It happened because the inspiration for truth
was sparked in people's minds, exciting them in life-enhancing ways.
It dared to challenge a fixed and long depressing status quo. It
fulfilled human needs that most people were not even aware of. With that thought
in mind, consider the incredible rewards and benefits offered by
Chivalry-Now. Social, yes, but personal as well. There is knowledge
to be had that is guaranteed to increase your happiness, bits and
pieces of life-related insight, gathered daily, that others seem
to miss. When we experience life as a quest, it seasons our days
with an existential thrill of adventure and appreciation. What could
be more life-enhancing than that? There are the
mindsets available to us all that are capable of alleviating
insecurity and depression. There are virtues to be gleaned
that will set our lives in order. There is an excellence
independent of conventional expectations. There is the power
of achievement and harmony that is gleaned from civil cooperation.
All this can
be found in the integrity of the heroic life, and it is achievable
for each of us. What deserves more enthusiasm than that? Advocacy starts
when you radiantly exude what is best in human nature for all to
see. Let the joy of the quest be your banner. Carry it with pride. Show the world
that chivalry is no chore. It is not a set of rules imposed
by others that threaten your freedom. It is the blossoming of heroic
conscience in a world from which freedom is born. It is the attitudinal
pleasure that comes from right action. It is the soul liberated
from the enslavement of greed and egocentricity. It speaks the language
of the soul that overcomes our separateness, resurrecting our appreciation
of truth, beauty and honor. It makes possible the purest form of
love because it generates our noblest capacity for love. By living such
a life with enthusiasm, you not only partake in it more richly,
you become a valued soldier in our cause, no matter what your age
or gender or skin color, no matter where you live or your occupation.
We call such warriors Knights because the battles
we confront are as spiritual as they are moral. Each of our
lives can provide a catalyst that draws others to our cause. You
will know when this happens when you feel the joy of authenticity
pulsing in your veins, and others will know it as well. |
