hi everybody,
I am sure that, I am superstitious. Why? Because, everyday when I go out my house which for rent. I don't really like the landlord. They are greedy and impolite. In our country, VIET NAM, the day is a good day if you don't have to meet these people. I am afraid to meet them because my works will become intricate.
It is my experience. Please believe me! It's true.

I am not in the least of superstitious . For if 13 colud be unlucky or other wise there are people who were born on 13 th and they were and are succesful. !3 th was not Judas but it is Jesus himself for He never wanted to be the first. God has never created bad things omens ets. it is man made Prof Kulandairaj

Well, I'm not triskaidekaphobic who is improprietorial and idiosyncratic on the day. So, I can handle it without any vexation in contradistinction to those who are periodically afflicted by the triskaidekaphobia.

Although I was born in November the 13th, I'm not particularly superstitious. I think superstitions have to be kept very far by people using knowledge and reason in all ways of the life.

But, let me say that in my country people commonly say: "don't believe in the superstitions but beware of them!"

Bye.

well I didn't use to be but I became superstitious since the 13th of August. I am going to explain. On that day I travelled and I encoutered a lot of ugly problems.So I concluded that number 13 is a bad day for doing anything.

I am nothing but all superstition,says my friend Marian whom I meet almost every day and we spend some time together on a chitchat.I list down a few of them.
1.When I see a cow in the morning I believe that it is going to be a wonderful day.It has always happened to me.The same time I do not keep one at residence as it is too small a place.
2.If a child winks at me at any time of the day I think that there is going to be much fun for the rest of the day and this too has happened always.
3.If it rains the same time as I wake up from bed early morning, I have the idea that I will be slow in everything for the remaining part of the day and,I have noticed,it to be absolutely right.
4.If I see rose flower in the early part of the day,I will have romantic thrill.this too has happened.
5.If a fat fair well clad middle aged woman comes towards me when I am coming out of the house,I will get a lot of money.Personal experience has proved it right.

These are just a few.You try these and see whether there is truth in what I believe.I am sure you will not call them superstitions.

Am i superstitious? well, I was, and that made my life really difficult I understand now when I am free from it. The first thing that God made me free from is my superstitious, and I am really happy now, as I don't worry anymore about how a knife lays on the table, or throwing the rubbish out in the evenings without waiting for the sunrise, and I don't really care about the number 13, black cats and many other superstitions. Thanks to my Lord - Jesus!

I think I'm not superstitious at all, our life is in our hands and nothing can disturb us to do this or that thing, of course, unfortunately, there are things that cannot be helped, but they are not as much as people sometimes present them, it's someting like 10 percents out of 100...so let your mind work instead of your feelings and everything will be all righ!
Thank you very much

Mr. Torsten,
First of all, Thank you, you are very kind of me and is a pleasure to write you. I hope you will not read my mistakes.
I had a look to Abbreviations and Time expressions.
I listened Sue, she is really clear.

I did Grammr test and my score was: 6 out of 10

Correctly: 1, 3,4,6,9 and 10

2: I wrote He will have been taken
5: I wrote It is quickest
7: I wrote hardly
8: I wrote their

To use NOUN and a VERB: I think we need more practice for not to make a mistake. THINK is a verb and THING is a noun. PASSIVE and ACTIVE, I know something about it, but I think I could confuse the correctly form to use.

Mr. Torsten: I invited three friends to join our email course, they are very interested.

About to share with you my views it make feel embarrass, you are my Teacher, but I would try.
If I am superstitious?, well I am a woman, I believe in God but sometimes I crossed my fingers. It is not a punishment but is better not to take a habit to believe in superstitious becouse men has created it and God has given our life.

Thank you
Best regards
Leonor

I do agree with Mr Souad's point of view,I also believe every thing is happen by the will of God. If some thing is happening bad with us. We should have figure it out the reasons and causes, If couldn't then leave it to God because God has better plan for us. I also believe that when bad incident occur then we should force to think where did we go wrong? As far as the no 13 has concern I don't think that no 13 can be a unlucky no in any way. We should have find out the logic and reasons behind the superstition. otherwise we couldn't be able to enjoy our life and would always blame others. so be positive and think positive and shouldn't follow our forefathers wrong believes. Do what you think better and learn from your mistakes. There are lots of people who believe different kinds of superstition. Do you think that they are gaining any thing or they are loosing any more?

Hi,

In my country philippines superstition our ancestors had planted this belief in every Filipinos mind.It has been part of the teachings of our eldest ever since, the Spanish conqueror had begun to inhabit our country many centuries ago. They are the very first one to educate our native's since then they established the Government system and the teaching in catholism.
There's a good and bad in supertition, once you started to believe it there's something that will hold you back to do something because you think something Bad will happen.
in the first place how will you know that something gonna happen, only God know's ,because he is a creator. But there's some degree we need to consider, if you know that there's certain person had experieced the Bad luck.You need to step back and think.

Alway's smile.
