I too am traveling East toward the "True" meaning. Let it be enough that you are recognized as a brother with common goals, exchange pleasntries and grow a new freindship, but do be careful about signs and tokens - there are a lot of "cowens and Evesdroppers" out there that know a little and want to kinw more. Don't share your secrets until you each have been tried and proven by one another. Also, watch out that you do not get involved to deeply with a "Clandestine" mason. Most of all, enjoy your travels.<br /><br />Doug - Virginia #288 AF&AM.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07454677504121753252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868929508219223321.post-38027171317049701762016-02-21T12:26:22.902-05:002016-02-21T12:26:22.902-05:00I amI amAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14944935964198293978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868929508219223321.post-32983469718996804382015-01-06T08:48:42.769-05:002015-01-06T08:48:42.769-05:00Please feel free to contact me for further discuss...Please feel free to contact me for further discussions on the subject.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07454677504121753252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868929508219223321.post-90018089087218933552015-01-06T08:47:19.211-05:002015-01-06T08:47:19.211-05:00Greetings Brothers, I too am a Traveling Man. but...Greetings Brothers, I too am a Traveling Man. but it seems to me that many of our brethren are not entirely sure what is meant by"Being a Traveling man".

Most of the time I would offer them a token or perhaps if were in a high traffic area just throw an allusion and we'd grin at each other and part. Then a friend of mine suggested I pick up a book entitled Masonic Catch-E-Kism, this little booklet contains 100's of question in relation to the first 3 degrees of masonry. Now, I don't think anybody expects a person to remember all of this but it's an interesting resource to have. I know that amongst my friends from college and earlier that are now brothers we enjoy quizzing each other and we try to find questions to stump each other.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03159124197265270509noreply@blogger.com
