Siguiendo el consejo de cefas, vuelvo a insistir sobre Verdades Verdaderas.
El opus obliga a la Mortificacion Corporal - Cilicio u Disciplinas - a todos los numerarios desde los 14 años de edad. Al mismo tiempo para aquellos jovenes cuyos papas no son del opus se le obliga a mantener en secreto su pertenencia a la secta bajo el pretexto de que "ellos no lo entenderían y te harían perder la vocación".
Si Cefas, hablemos de verdades. Comencemos por estas y luego seguimos por cien más !!!

I was a supernumerary, so I did not touch the hair shirt and flogging, but the bath with cold water (to feel guilt if the water heater lit, thought it was not true), I suggested sleeping with a pillow book, let alone clothes ... obviously could not wear bikinis or short skirts (not saying miniskirts, but above the knee ... Once I made a correction for a skirt that was 2 cm above the knee) ... Well , but these are nonsense ...
I did not live in the flesh to have to hide who was from the book to my parents, but I lived close family situations very tense, full of lies and odd jobs ... and the worst is that I thought was the right thing ... God mine!
Bueno, por ahora quedamos acá...los escucho a los demás!!!!!

When Piteå (write the letter to the Prelate for applying, in language of "House" or internal jargon) and added (with a commitment to celibacy apostolic life in the family and "blood") at 18 years I said that for now not to tell my family that later.

Also in the early days of the requested admission, when I told the person doing the talking or confidence (ie, weekly oral disclosure of your activities and thoughts to your manager or caretaker lay) when told that he had responded affirmatively to question from a friend that if I had made the Opus, I said again, if someone asked me who say no.

It never came to understand, because shortly after I had to bring all friends and more friends to take them at meditation, circles, lectures, retreats, retreats ...

Lola, what you say swimsuit is just so beyond this at numeraries not allowed to wear a sleeveless blouse (muscle) and are forced to sleep on tables without a mattress on the bed. It is very curious to see how all the beds have thick mattresses with deep almoadones up but no one suspects that at night the mattress is removed and sleep - if they can - on hard boards ...

If the tables sa'bía it under the mattress ...
One of the things that trouble me most was the night time when I was living somewhere. He preferred to sleep alone, because it seemed ridiculous to be surrounded by 3 or 4 small and not talk in the room, because if you did, besides giving you a little "thing" for not living habits and not be faithful, I came to hit the door like you're a girl who disobeys the father ...
Bye!
(before I wrote a longer one, but when I wanted to post was lost ...)
