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

La fecha es el veinticinco (25) de enero del año dos mil veintidós. (The date is January 25, 2022.)

El dicho de la semana es:   Hablando del rey de Roma, por la puerta asoma.

(The saying of the week is:   Speaking of the king of Rome, through the door he appears.)

In English, when having a conversation with someone about another person, if the person you’re speaking about suddenly appears, you might say, “Speaking of the Devil.”

For such a scenario while speaking Spanish, when the person spoken of appears, it’s common to say, “Hablando de Roma…” (“Speaking of Rome…”) This expression makes reference to the proverb of the week.
