Are you superstitious? (How do you behave on Friday 13th?)

[Andriyyach]

It's a bad luck to be superstitious...

[Karuga]

No... never. I am christian and I believe that every day is good for some and bad for other people but all depend on will of God

Hello Torsten,
Naturally 13 is the number after 12 and before 14 and it the age children become teenagers.
Also 13 is considered to be bad number simply because it is one more than 12 which is popularly used number in many cultures.In some countries, friday 13th is considered as misfortune day, because it is believed that on this date motor accidents increase than other fridays.It is also said to be unlucky number because if 13 people gather, one of them will die the following year!!!.Contrary christians believe it as lucky number because of attribution ofmercy from God.
Iam not superstitious because the life is ups and down and all achievements are from working hard and cooperation from community someone lives in.
English is an intersting language and that is why we are learning it so as to get relieved from language barrier.

No, I am not superstitious, but sometimes, I do try these 'number' things, or astrological predictions just for fun or making myself in a good mood.

[AmitHorizon]

I am not superstitions.this is only depends upon our thoughts,but I believe in God.God is invisible power.To feel god, only believe them and you can get it any form.

Hello, everyone!
I try not to be superstitious, because it makes a person weak. And I'm not very strong myself, so I don't need any additional weakness. I feel comfortably enough on Friday 13th and I'm not afraid of black cats. And I wish you not to be superstitious either.

Hi, Ndora

I totally agree with you. I just believe myself. I do nothing with Friday 13th. There is an English saying, "You Reap What You Sow". I trust this rule so far. However, I do accept others' stories as well, such as how they believe something. It's still interesting for me.

Speak to you soon.

Maggie^^

Hi
Torsten

Nice to read different views on the superstitions . In my view , its a state of mind . sometimes it so happen that first an event occured and then we co-relate this to the superstition in our mind .

I am not superstitious. I don't believe that any particular day is auspicious or inauspicious .

Further , I just wanted to know how to communicate about learning lessons . Suppose I write something and wanted to get feedback of my performance by you . How to go ahead .

I am finding this forum is very useful and encouraging in the direction of overcome weakness .
Kindly help .
Regards
Anita

Respected Torsten,

WE Are Indian Very Thinker not supertitious only but also not Blindfaither, Logically i have to prove if some situation or logic takeplace at the time
of failour or at the time of loose the thing.

some intution and Yoga of Breathing also develop such superiarity to see future
in very earlier time or introduced such man/woman/thing/time....etc.

13 is my favorite Number i was passed each Exam when its on date 13 or Roll number is 13. My logic that My Birthday has 24 i.n 4 is 1+3=4 and 1-3=2 number is very match.
Secondly what your expression about any number or thing or Ghost Witch etc...
if your confidence is super at the winning the part you are the Hero otherwise you are failed in any situation.
Thanks.
Regards. As such i am Philosofer and logically prover.
