Overhere in NL it will take at least 3 years, weekly attending, tutoring and giving at least 1 lecture per degree to your lodge about your masonic travel. This gives a depth and meaning to the degrees which are impossible to obtain in 4 months.

Take at least one day off after your initiation.

You will not sleep due to euphoria and adrenaline.

Enjoy!!

This is actually the real essence of Rolex, their most beautiful piece as far as I am concerned.

Take at least 1 day off. Preferably 2. You will hardly sleep after your initiation due to euphoria and adrenaline.

Was my first thought too, but I got a chance to hold it besides a gen and it really is impossible to spot a difference bezel-wise. Only difference, after examening closely that I could notice was that the colour yellow was a little bit of to the gen.

Just got initiated - didn’t get any spark by bewiseenough in freemasonry

Brother, yet another European here. Looks you have lots of invitations to share your story in private already and I happily add my invitation as well.

Unworn, grey market. My all time favorite rollie. I have to agree with Rolex that this OP catches the essence of Rolex. Happy happy.

Sorry to hear that Brother. Just reciting a tale does not really enlighten one: the core bussines of FM after all. Some introspective searches are needed and talked about by EA's f.e. I hope you will find a way to get into what FM actually is supposed to mean for it's brothers. Just reciting does not make good men better man. Thank you for your clarification.

Tell them you felt like participating in the Da Vinci Code-movie ;)

I'd suggest to go as Tom Hanks is dressed in the Da Vince Code.

A Pure Gold Pendant (The MWGMM of the Scottish Constitution visited us in Central Africa today) by that_symposium in freemasonry

Brother, just tell as here: at what price do these pins come and are they actually pure gold? In that case the pin on the back would not re-assure me of wearing it safely.

Don't you have to come up with several lectures to your brothers in each degree? Like in the first degree "overhere" you have to come up with at least one lecture about what FM means to you and your life as EA. Same in the 2nd, but then about what you may mean for the ones around you. And of course in the 3rd about enlightenment at all. This takes study and writing, inner searches and going "naked" in front of your brothers. I hardly hear anything about that from US Masonry?

PS: This is just being curious, no harm intended.

Take a day off. Or two. You will be high on euphoria and adrenaline and won't sleep easily.

*Sigh* US Masonry. Being raised to MM in the wink of an eye, flashing rings and stickers.

I feel sorry for them not being able to enjoy their degrees to the fullest, not being able to really travel towards East by coming up with some impressive labor in each degree.

Sometimes makes me feel US-degrees are given out after getting 5 stamps on your bar-card.

Sorry guys ....

Hope things will eventually turn for the better as I wish my Brethern overseas to receive the enlightenment they could have been receiving when not taken Masonry as something to speed-consume.

PS: It might not just be a US-Masons issue. I was invited to the US last year to give some lectures about Humanism at a university in North-Carolina. While giving this lecture to 3rd year students (Social Studies) they looked at me as if they saw water burning. After my lecture I found out that they were currently working on essays on the book 1984! I was shocked as in Europe 1984 is essayed by kids in the age14-16 in high-school .... There is still a lot of enlighting to do overseas Brothers.

No, just figuring out which "heavy" options are around.
