Personally, I participate in Easter Totana from more than 4 decades ago: procesionando, showing positions of responsibility within the board of my Brotherhood "Jesus on Calvary and the Holy Supper", actively collaborating in Nazarenes projects in various events organized around our Easter, etc.
I would like to share with the Nazarene world Totana the experience I have lived in relation to an initiative that I developed months ago, in order to participate as a columnist in the magazine that published annually Brotherhoods and brotherhoods of our city "Our Magazine Easter ".
As I mentioned, this year it seemed appropriate to participate in the magazine article I attached which was delivered through the president of my sorority at the Cabildo vocalía publications.
After a few days, he told me that those responsible for editing the magazine had sentenced him to that article contained some "inappropriate" that should be changed, phrase which I accepted without problems.
But what was my surprise a few days, when I was told by my Brotherhood president, they would not publish my writing.
Very angry, I called the manager edition of the magazine and said that the decision was not his, but the Cabildo processions, since all members had agreed in rejecting my letter, without giving any explanation.
I find it shameful that I refuse to participate in a Nazarene annual edition that I have as their own, which is funded largely by contributions from all the brothers of the guilds, with municipal public money.
A publication where they appear, among others, opinion, as is the case of my writing.
Also seems a sign of weakness that City Council members are not able to admit and accept a little constructive criticism from a Nazarene.
I do not agree with everything that is published in the journal of Easter has to be rosy, full of praise and flattery towards it, since all we know that Easter totanera always gets involved in controversy and disagreements for various reasons that are irrelevant.
I would let them know the members of the council, that Easter is not theirs, and they could do a little more tolerance.

EASTER totanera
Yes friends, it is our Easter, which we live, feel, makes us go outside when we heard passing the various bands playing their drums and trumpets, leading after them an entourage of friends and family who accompany them to the headquarters of the brotherhoods, where managers and related staff have a lot of work, meetings, rehearsals, arrangements of images and thrones ... and all that with much enthusiasm and energy, waiting and hoping that everything goes well during processions.
This what I mean belongs to the logistics of Easter, which not everyone sees.
Our Easter should be one of the most respectful and important of the Region of Murcia, but misses the grade since the avenues and main streets of the town are filled with bars bars full of Nazarenes, which gives a little serious image Holy Week.
Every year more people come out to "put" our robes to live Holy Week as a carnival-like celebration, with no intention of formally part of it, either procesionando any of our fraternities, or appreciating the solemnity and beauty processions.
Meanwhile, since the directive, all the presidents of the various guilds are prepared to carry out this important and necessary task is to move forward our Easter.
From here, wanted to send a message to those presidents who work so hard, and they are putting the presidency to work with and for the brotherhood they represent, but never to interfere with other legitimate and perfectly legal institutions that have nothing to do with Easter.
Even if so, should not oppose them, since no one has an absolute truth or exclusivity;
and intolerance is never justified, even less when discussing a topic that we should all join hands and work side by side to continue working on something so great that both want and what unites us, as is Easter totanera .
From my position, I encourage everyone to contribute their effort and dedication to our processions take to the streets full of Nazarenes participating in them, feeling proud of their Easter.
