Are you superstitious?
Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
Slept well past my normal hours today for the first time in a while…!
I remember going to sleep at 2:30 in the morning just because I wanted to watch a few more episodes of the TV series The Nanny from the year 1993…!
And after watching a few episodes half asleep I think I will be watching them again to remember what I watched in the last hour…!
With binge watching comes some munching so I had a bag of puffcorns that I went through almost until it was two in the morning…!
Waking up at 8:30 and with a massive head pain and pain in my right leg;
I decided not to go on my morning walk,
But instead I will go on a night walk later after returning home from work….!
Coming back to the prompt
Our superstitious nature…!
Are you even human if you don’t have a tad bit of superstition in things around you…?
Well,
A bit superstition makes us be aware of things that happen around us;
Imagine travelling on an empty road that doesn’t seem empty to you;
That’s your superstition talking to you and telling you to avoid walking on the road;
The same also kicks in when a black cat passes the path that you wanted to take,
And you change your path thinking it brings you bad luck…!
But let me tell you something,
That black cat is probably scared of something or running to get some food…!
Another one would be sneezing before going someplace…!
Like as soon as someone is leaving from home or leaving to do something important,
And someone sneezes;
They tell them to wait a few minutes and leave home a bit later—
That is because if there is some mishap that was supposed to happen sometime in the future, it can be avoided as that wait kicked a change in the timeline…!
I don’t know much about that…!
Well,
A bit of this superstition makes us who we are;
We do things in advance or delay them as much as possible as possible,
Sometime we take a detour,
Sometime we avoid going to a place altogether that day and decide it can be delayed another day;
And when that happens—
It brings out our superstitious self and let it take over us…!
Well,
Maybe for good,
Our good luck and wellbeing of those around us….
Don’t we…?
Cheers 🥂
