the manager was a strange old guy

O Honrio.

we know we like what's here

we know that we want what's here

but what is here exactly ?

just set this on your tongue

for five seconds

now chew ,three times

Manolo ,you taste what ?

armond

armond ?!

- cinnamon

- cinnamon ?!

don't scoff

yes ,cinnamon

alright you can go

Josemaria, you stay here

I scolded Manolo for mugging wasn't count experience

not because he couln't experience it

huh ,look at this

ugly ,isn't it ?

just a poor ordinary little bean

yet patient...,

skill ,hard work

and love

end unleash the divine

flavors hidden with in it

here

do you understand the lesson ?

but not everyone has

taste the divine in it

why is that I wonder...

Manolo!

wait for me !

stop Manolo

my favorite trick in those days

was stealing Josemaria's

dad's chocolates

but then his dad went bankrupt

and lost the chocolate factory

...and I wasn't allowed to

play with Josemaria anymore

my dad thought poverty was contagious

he said that Josemaria wasn't one of us

and my dad could be quite persuasive

my dad had more money

more cars

more houses

but Josemaria had more "dads"

I see the envy began to grow in me

in a child's heart many

seeds are planted

you never quite know what will grow

I'm sure he didn't see us

around that time ,Josemaria changed

I'll tell you the story

as he told it to me

one cold winter night

Josemaria saw footprints

in the snow outside his house

he fallowed him

and then he saw someone

and he felt that God was calling him

it was unusual in those days

for a young man to

want to become a priest

like it or not most

young men were celibate

at least as a priest ,you got pay for it

the priesthood was an career option

but for Josemaria ,

it was an secret calling

do you know what

are you taking on son ?

yes papa

no one to love ,human love I mean

no family on your own

- no sons

- I know papi

and is this the wisest time

to become a priest ?!

probably not

is your father's still selling underpants Josemaria ?

backstabbing careerist

you vegetal pig !

what lesson did you drow form this ?

to control my temper

Torres ,what did you call the seminarist Escriva ?

a vegital pig !

and you ,what did you call Torres ?

a backstabbing careerist

sorry monsenior

I can't stand this type

a backstabbing careerist

so that defines it ?

what his father is rich so he thinks he can act

like a pain in the ass

that's not the somthing I had in the mind Escriva

yet ,isn't someone else his father ?

and yours ?

remember...

the withholding of forgiveness it the one thing

that our Lord made clear

that will not be forgiven
