CTRL-C: I'm here, I'm here... :S

CTRL-V: ...OK, so I promised myself I was going to blog, but somehow got caught up in my everyday routine and totally used my time up in other important things (some not so important, but you get the point)... However, I might be setting my bar too high in regards to the quality of the post I write in this blog, and hence have not posted any of the 5 other post I have begun and not posted (Someday I will post them... I promise!)

Overall, I just wanted to write a few lines to let everybody know that I'm still here, and that I will try my best to not only write more post, but to actually POST them, lol...

Just for giggles, I wanted to post a question that has been bothering me for quite some time. It's actually a very popular saying in my country and I'm going to try to translate it... Here is the question with the translated saying:

Is it true that "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know."?

hmmmmm... I wonder!!! (In Spanish: "Es mejor un mal conocido, que uno por conocer")

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS????

Ali, just thought you'd like to know that this is the english version: "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know."

Pinkster, I feel you 100%... The devil you know is easier to deal with because you already know what's capable of, but it's better to just get it out of your life... Thanks Cuz!

Evolution boy, Yes, that's exactly what I meant! Thanks for helping me out lil bro! "Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't know! Keep bringing it guys, Thanks for your support!

brother!! i never knew u had posted something!!! oh man! i otta read it! but I read this last one....and.....u know what has shocked me?!?! yesterday I was talking to my girls after rehearsal and I used this saying!!!!! jajajajajaja Im actually wondering the same thing jajajaja....honestly I think there´s no absolute answer, like everything in life. Depends on each situation...every situation can have general characteristics, but each is unique in their own way, therefore, different things work for different people. Muuuah! Pero si hay que sopesar las cosas muuuuuy bien! Antes de hacer las cosas, durante y despues....no temer tomar riesgos....especialmente cuando uno esta seguro de lo que uno quiere.

I love u brotherrrrrrrr!

Brother, nunca habìa leìdo tu blog....OMG!!!! Sorry!!! I read the other post and it shocked me ´cause I didn´t know you´ve felt like this all this time. But about this one, all I can say is that we all got a little of a devil inside of us...we are so imperfect!!!! We all got somethings good and somethings not so good. So the devil you knew was probably a saint for you before. As well the saint you´ll get to know we´ll become a devil sooner or later. I think we just have to tolerate each other ´cause as I said none of us are even close to being perfect...not even you or I. I´ll let you in a little secret: we are probably the devil for the people around us...you don´t want people to just get you out of their life, do you? You want them to give you a chance. Everybody deserves a chance...right??? Love you, brother...hope this helps!!!

My lovely sisterrrrrrrsss! Thanks so much for reading my blog... I'm trying to write more and more as I get free time. I think this is a good therapy for my soul...

I agree with both of you, and think that it really depends on the situation, because you'll always find a devil in each person, no matter how they may look, or sound. So it's all a matter of understanding each other, and moving forward learning to agree to disagree. C'est la Vie, I guess!

And, Yes, sis, we are somebody else's devil, so it's only right, to allow others to have a chance at getting that devil out of the way. But the person that's getting that chance should also put some effort into getting rid off, or improving that devil, for the sake of the relationship with that other person, whether it be a friendship, a family, a marriage, or a partnership...

All in all, no matter who you know now, and who you will get to know later, it is a fact that we all have our own little devils.

I love you both, sisterrrrss! Besos!
