I am a mixture of excitement and nervousness as I wait for the vote that decides if I continue on my journey and get to join the Fraternity of Freemasons. The vote is just a week away and I am praying that everything goes well. I have no worries about the vote but I think everyone feels this way before the vote knowing it just takes one to put in a black ball for you not to be able to join or petition again for 6 months. I have a friend in the police department that was voted on last month and did his Entered Apprentice initiation just a week or so ago. He was just as nervous as me before the vote but said that the ceremony was one of the most awesome things he has every experienced. The Lodge, knowing that we are friends, reminded him that he could not tell me anything about the ceremony which I prefer because I want to be able to experience the ritual without any preconceptions. I am looking forward to the coming month and I will keep you updated with the results of the vote and all of my feelings and experiences yet to come.
Your Humble Servant,
Mason Seeker
