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

La fecha es el doce (12) de diciembre del año dos mil veintitrés. (The date is December 12, 2023.)

El dicho de la semana es:

El que quiera camarones tiene que mojarse el fundillo.

(The saying of the week is:    He who wants shrimp has to get his backside wet.)

We are reminded of the importance of hard work and sacrifice to reach our goals with this Nicaraguan refrain.

Practice saying this proverb whenever you set goals for yourself.

¡Que tengas un martes mojado!    (May you have a wet Tuesday!)

L. A. Feliz
