There's an English proverb that goes: "Speak of the devil and he doth appear".

Deriving from the Middle Ages, this proverb was a superstitious prohibition against speaking directly of the Devil or of evil in general, which was considered to incite that party to appear, generally with unfortunate consequences. Its first printed usage in modern English can be found in Giovanni Torriano's Piazza Universale (1666), as "The English say, Talk of the Devil, and he's presently at your elbow."

The phrase lost its overt message during the 19th century, during which it became a warning against eavesdroppers - "No good of himself does a listener hear,/Speak of the devil he's sure to appear"), and by the 20th century had taken on its present meaning.

In Finnish this principle is stated in the words: "Siinä paha missä mainitaan", which translates to "Evil is where it's mentioned."

In Hindi/Urdu: "Shaitan ka na'am lo, shaitan hazir" which translates to "Speak of the devil, and he will appear."

In Yiddish: "A shod m'hot nisht geredt fun moshiach" which translates to "We should have talked about the Messiah," or "A shame we weren't talking about the Messiah."

Another Yiddish idiom: "Az men redt fun der malech, kumt der galech", which translates to "Talk about the angel, and here comes the priest."

I think it's important to reflect on these sayings...... and then apply what we understand from them in our daily lives.

Speak about good........ and you will get good.

Speak about evil.......... and you will get evil.
