Masonry has done some terrific things for me. I never would have met the academy-award winning actor Richard Dreyfuss. I observed him take the Craft degrees, and also the SR degrees.
It isn't what Masonry does in me, it is what I do in Masonry that matters.
I enjoy the conversations and companionship of some truely great guys and love the lessons in morality.
Congrats brother,
I always love to hear stories from fellow brethren. If you dont mind me asking where do you hail from?
Fraturnally yours,

Mr.Charles,I love to tell stories of my experiences with Masonry. I have attended lodges in several overseas locales, including Russia and Saudi Arabia.
I was born in Louisville KY. I moved to Bowling Green KY and attended college there, and took the degrees at Bowling Green Lodge#73 (Grand Lodge of KY, F&AM).
I now reside in Alexandria VA (Metro WashDC)

Thank you, Mr.Brother JC!Harry Truman was a Grand Master and President, but when in lodge he was a Brother who did not discuss politics. There is no contradiction to a Mason being a politician.
I am not sure about my life but I have heard quite a number of new brethren say that their life changed after initiation. The changes were not abrupt but over a number of years but they were clear about the trigger for the changes.
In my view the EA obligation, if properly taken, is a commitment to the GAOTU, and He/She does respond to commitment.
It has re-enforced for me how some good acting and some good scripts can influence men to the point of foregoing what they profess that they truly want in exchange for exposure to chronic feel good dogma, title jockeying and back patting.What has [free]masonry done in your life?
