    A man is driving................

    A man is driving down the road and his car breaks down near a Masonic Lodge.

    He goes to the Lodge, knocks on the door, and says, "My car broke down.

    Do you think I could stay the night?"

    The Masons graciously accept him, feed him dinner, even fix his car.

    As the man tries to fall asleep, he hears a strange sound. A sound not like
    anything he's ever heard before.

    The Sirens that nearly seduced Odysseus into crashing his ship comes to his
    mind.

    He doesn't sleep that night. He tosses and turns trying to figure out
    what could possibly be making such a seductive sound.

    The next morning, he asks the Masons what the sound was, but they say, "We
    can't tell you. You're not a Mason."

    Distraught, the man is forced to leave.

    Years later, after never being able to forget that sound, the man goes back
    to the lodge and pleads for the answer again.

    The Freemasons reply, "We can't tell you. You're not a Mason."

    The man says, "If the only way I can find out what is making that
    beautiful sound is to become a Mason, then please, make me a Mason."

    The Freemasons reply, "You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of
    grass there are and the exact number of grains of sand. When you find these
    answers, you will have become a Mason."

    The man sets about his task.

    After years of searching he returns as a gray-haired old man and knocks on
    the door of the Masonic Lodge. A Mason answers. He is taken before a gathering
    of all the Masons.

    "In my quest to find what makes that beautiful sound, I travelled the
    earth and have found what you asked for, “By design, the world is in a state
    of perpetual change. Only God knows what you ask. All a man can know is
    himself, and only then if he is honest and reflective and willing to strip
    away self deception."

    The Masons reply, "Congratulations. You have become a Freemason. We shall now show
    you the way to the mystery of the sacred sound."

    The Mason leads the man to a wooden door, where the head Freemason says, "The
    sound is beyond that door."

    The Masons give him the key, and he opens the door.

    Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone.

    The man is given the key to the stone door and he opens it, only to find a
    door made of ruby.

    And so it went that he needed keys to doors of emerald, pearl and diamond.

    Finally, they come to a door made of solid gold. The sound has become very
    clear and definite. The Freemasons say, "This is the last key to the last door."

    The man is apprehensive to no end. His life's wish is behind that door!

    With trembling hands, he unlocks the door, turns the knob, and slowly pushes
    the door open. Falling to his knees, he is utterly amazed to discover the
    source of that haunting and seductive sound......















    But I can't tell you what it is because you're not a Freemason.
