Thanks Brother @Andymac40330! Perhaps we can Chat sometime about our journey since we began around the same time. I say that because I know of no other current EAs on this site.

That sounds good brother. I am beginning to work through the memory work and it seems a daunting task but I'm breaking it down into sections and slowly compounding it. I really enjoyed the EA ritual and was able to calm myself enough to both retain and understand a lot of it as well as having a good time. I hope your experience was equally exciting and enjoyable.

I am about to start my memory work as well. From what I have seen so far it does seem like there's going to be quite a few late nights trying to get it memorized to perfection. My experience was a good one. Before my initiation, my lodge hadn't conferred a ea degree in about five years so it was a refresher for the brothers as well, but it still was good and I was able to relax, enjoy myself, and even share a few laughs.
