Lest we forget, my dear brothers, young and old alike, Tau Alpha represents The Argonauts in search of the Golden Fleece, more than merely being The Adventurers seeking personal satisfaction and glory. The adventure along the way should serve only to enrich our ideals in the ultimate goal of finding The Golden Fleece and not be the ultimate objective of our life’s journey.
To be a True Blue Tau Alphan, not necessarily to be the most eminent professionally and financially successful Tau Alphan, adorned with all the laurels, citations and recognitions of our achievements, a Tau Alphan should continue this never ending search for the truth in our daily lives. Regardless of the arduous path of the journey that one must endure in the gauntlets along the way, the Tau Alphan spirit should reign supreme in the hearts and mind of an Argonaut, in search of The Truth. It goes without saying that liars cannot be Tau Alphans.
It would be a great dishonor, tantamount to treason, to defeat this enduring Tau Alphan spirit all for the sake of assuring hold to power where it is vested on us. I myself have been struggling to keep to this straight and narrow path in search of The Golden Fleece and can only say that I have been a True Blue Tau Alphan at the end of this journey. Then and only then can I say that I have finally found the Golden Fleece.
To name a few I can remember, again this is limited to brods whom I have had the chance to meet and know, brods Boyet Ramos and Dante Madriaga, continue the search in their lives’s journey as Argonauts.
The ideals in Greek Mythology, in our case the journey of Jason and The Argonauts, provide us guides in our life’s philosophies and values to adhere to and hopefully pass on to the next generation. We can choose to ignore these ideals and even replace it with our own personal beliefs. Doing so, however, effectively detaches us from the heart of Tau Alpha Fraternity.
