The Opportunity Comes to Me

November 20, 1982: Last Saturday after Mass, a woman approached my aunt and me just as we were about to go home. She started talking about how much she liked Padre Luis and his "work" and how she enjoyed being a volunteer for the Legion de Maria. Then this woman (Bernarda) asked my Tia if she'd would like to join the group. No, thank tou. Bernarda then asked me. I looked at my Tia and she looked at me. I told Bernarda I needed time to think it over. This could be my chance! I'd get to know Padre Luis a little more and that might help me get over my feelings for him; maybe somebody in the Legion knows somebody who might be able to help my Tia, at least give her advice that nobody else has so far.
