during my spanish lesson today i asked my teacher about an idiom that i was hearing a lot. Guatamalans usually say 'creo' [i believe] when Americans would say 'pienso' [i think]. my teacher said 'yes, because of religious and colonial roots in the country many people believe but they don't think'. he did add that maybe one day that would change. it makes my soul ache to think that is thier mentality here and it will take generations to change.
