Do you tend to believe in things that have no scientific basis or even evidence that would necessarily make it appear to be true? Not talking about legitimate supernatural phenomena like psychic abilities (clearly observed them myself), ghosts (also experienced them myself and there's what appears to be legitimate photographs), and extraterrestrials (essentially proven due to the sheer volume of photographs, eyewitness reports, and irrefutable evidence, though people simply choose not to believe due to the probable government cover-up and brainwashing that ETs aren't real, also seen them myself and have had some truly mind blowing experiences with them which I discuss on here).
I'm referring to dumb and meaningless stuff like stepping over cracks in the sidewalk, being worried about accidentally opening umbrellas indoors, not walking under ladders, etc. I do all of this stuff, and I once got truly quite worried when an umbrella accidentally opened inside. To be honest, even though one part of me feels like superstitions like this are meaningless and that it's dumb to worry about them...... there's another part of me that wonders if perhaps they are true. Thus, I find myself paranoid about it if I accidentally do something that could potentially bring harm as a result of various superstitions. Admittedly, even as a teenager, I avoided stepping over cracks in the sidewalk and only stopped paying all that much attention when I was like 18-19, simply because I walked a lot and it became rather inconvenient. And since nothing happened when I did step over the cracks in the sidewalk (obviously), I just kind of forgot about it for the most part. Though, if I actively notice cracks....... I avoid them. Though, I rarely think about it. But still, stuff like an umbrella opening instead honestly kinda freaks me out. If it were to happen, I'd be a bit paranoid about something bad happening....... and there's part of me that honestly believes that one. Although, I realize there's most likely no basis for it.
