well i went to the lodge to go meet some brothers and to introduce myself. i was a little nervous about walking in. i think i took me a few seconds before my arms would reach for the door. i knew what i wanted so i reached for the door and walked in! at first i was kinda imbarrest when i saw everyone having a meeting but was greated and flagged to come over. a older man asked how can we help you!!!! and in that moment i couldnt speak, words were rushing in my head but not to my mouth lol....and when i spoke, a brother on here had said my name as if he already knew i was coming. and i smiled and said i was wanting a petetion. i was told to join the meeting as so i did. i think a hour pasted as they talked and laughed. i still was in total disbelief and i didnt say much... well the time came for everyone to go so i was told to hang out and someone would be with me in a minute.
a few minutes had passed and a brother came over, sat down with me and asked me a few questions.... the biggest one was why did i seek them and why do i want to be a mason...at that moment so many thoughs a phrases came rushing in my head to answer his questions... then i got the history on masons. which most i already knew about..by this time i was so relaxed and comfortable it was very easy to talk. i felt like i was already a mason if that makes since....like i was ment to be there....
so tomorrow i have to go back to the lodge to see if they got any petitions i can fill out since they didnt have none my last visit....then all i need to do is wait until i get paid so i can give my petition fee and hopefully in jan 2011 i will be voted in and be a brother!
big thanks to everyone on here who has helped me in my journey.......
