Hello Brothers,I first stepped to the light at age of 21,at the time I thought I was ready but in reality I really wasn't, to say immature would be an understatement but my mentor saw more in me than I saw in myself, I had just gotten out of the military from during a tour in the desert and was trying to establish myself in the civilian world,and on top of that I had just become a father for the first time and I felt I had the weight of the world on my shoulders, financially I definitely wasn't ready, the lodge I was attending I felt like I didn't fit in, and then with brothers coming to me saying stuff like, If I want to screw your wife you have to set it up, so with that being said,I left only reaching my 2nd degree, I'm much older now and things have changed for the better but I have always carried the light with me, I've had several offers to become a Scottish Rite mason but my heart is with Prince Hall, I was told by a brother,in order to get my 3rd I would have to go back to my original lodge and I can't be touched until so, so I'm coming to you brothers asking for help, was that statement true? or can I find another lodge,if it means starting all over again, then that's what I'll have to do,thank you
