Thoughts destined to be washed away by the tides of life. |
| Today is a Friday the 13th. Not THE Friday the 13th. There is no THE Friday the 13th. Every so often, when there is a 13th, it falls on a Friday. I don’t know why that seems to freak people out. In a couple of days, it will be the 15th. That’s the Ides of March. They killed Julius Caesar on the Ides of March but no one worries about the 15th being bad luck. Even Julie didn’t beware when he ought to have bewared. But go look up any day on This Day in History websites. Terrible things happen every day. There are so many days that might be bad luck, but we have busy lives and cannot beware all the time. So, we just have to concentrate our superstition on one day, the 13th. I guess it makes sense. I really don't take any notice. |
