Both people who believe they are not superstitious and people who believe they are, should, I believe, understand two things. Firstly, it is not up to us to be superstitious or not - the non-superstitious have not prevented any superstition and the superstitious have not give superstition to themselves. Both groups are the same as they are equally powerless regarding what they believe or not believe. Secondly, as superstition exists as dual words, the non-superstitious should understand they nevertheless are superstitious. If you want to know how, try to replace the words “lucky” and “unlucky” with, for example, ”happy” and “unhappy”. You may not believe you are superstitious, but you do believe at times you are happy or unhappy. That’s reason number two why the superstitious and the non-superstitious are the same - superstition exists only as dual words and dual words happen also to the non-superstitious.
It’s my lucky number. Was my jersey number playing varsity sports.Did the unlucky number 13 bother anyone? Did anyone skip the iPhone 13 model because of that? Just wondering
13 is a lucky number for me (and a prime number to boot). The unlucky number is 14, because that’s where there was no mini model anymore. Appropriately enough, in Cantonese 14 sounds like “definitely dead”.
