¡Hoy es martes meditativo!     (Today is meditative Tuesday!)

La fecha es el veintiuno (21) de diciembre del año dos mil veintiuno. (The date is December 21, 2021.)

El dicho de la semana es:

Con hambre, no hay pan duro.

(The saying of the week is:     With hunger, there is no hard bread.)

The essence of this proverb is that when you are in need or hungry, you don’t pay attention to the quality of the food that’s available. It aims to instill an appreciation for food.

This proverb reminds me of a saying my mother often repeated, “Beggars can’t be choosy.”

Practice saying this proverb every time you prepare to eat.

¡Que tengas un martes magnífico!     (May you have an excellent Tuesday!)

L. A. Feliz
