Not so unlucky

I know that Friday the 13th is supposed to be an unlucky day but I always had good luck on these Fridays.

I sometimes wonder if the fact that people think it’s going to be unlucky makes them see a lack of luck.

I know that the whole concept of 13 being unlucky is from folklore and mythology, but it’s funny how it still persists. And how it is rarely evaluated.

I mean, there’s a whole bunch of questions we could ask ourselves about how the idea that something is a certain way makes it that way. And I know there are greater research minds than mine exploring that.

But I still like thinking about it.

And I like the fact that the number 13 and specifically Friday the 13th have always felt lucky to me.

Maybe I’m just being contrary but I’m rolling with it.
