Superstitions aren't just sayings, they're part of life. You can believe in logic, but still knock on wood, or you can pass a church on the freeway and still make the sign of the cross, when you hear someone sneeze and say God bless you or see a dime and pick it up. Some people grew up believing in superstitions while others picked them up from friends or teammates. . Superstitions are not just sayings, they are part of life. Whatever happens, whether you are a believer or not, it is difficult not to get trapped in the folklore of superstitions. There are many superstitions that we avoid on a daily basis, whether we know it or not. It doesn't matter whether we believe in superstitions or not we don't run the risk of breaking a mirror or walking under a ladder, personally I don't believe in superstitions, but I found them interesting, I try to avoid doing it, but I don't worry if they happen, for example breaking a mirror gives you 7 years of bad luck, this belief is because the mirror reflects your soul and it takes 7 years to rejuvenate the whole body, that's why it is said that you will have 7 years of bad luck, another superstition is passing under a ladder, this is because it hides a triangle and it is said that walking through it you may disturb the demons, that's why you will have bad luck, I think the most important thing superstition says "God bless you" after someone sneezes, it is said that when you sneeze it is because you are writing evil spirits, that's why they started saying "god bless you" it was thought that when someone sneezes their dead person was near, now we say it to be polite, but in reality this is another superstition. There are many ways in which superstitions are glued; one way is to pass down to... middle of paper ......a beautiful baby, it is customary for him to touch the baby's head so that "Ojo" in this case nothing bad happens to the baby. When my boyfriend and I are in the most casual places, from time to time unknown women ask her if they can touch her hair, when I think they ask I think they ask who does her hair, but it's a form of superstations ojo that the the beauty of the hair does not fall out.
