How Superstitions change my life?

What are superstitions?

It is a kind of belief that cannot be explained by reason or science. I always wondering, why do people believe in such things, and why is superstitions even existed? When it sometimes not logic at all. I know a lot of superstition, because my great grandmother always used it really often so as my mother, my aunt and uncles also my cousins Moreover, we were from Malacca blood, so Malacca people used superstitions like always and it’s their habits on creating superstitions. They love to use it if I had done something that inappropriate.

For instance, when I was young, if I didn’t finish my rice, my mother told me that don’t leave my rice unfinished or else it would cry. At that time I’m actually fall for it, I even cry apologizing to the rice for not finished it. But when I had grown up, I found out it was a lie, there is no such thing like crying rice. So, in my opinion, the reason my mother lied to me about the rice is just because she wants me to finished my meal and not wasting the food that I already ate. Even though I did not really trust superstitions, sometimes there is little superstition I did follow, such as, we cannot lay or sleep after having a meal, or my tummy will bloated, and I did followed it. This is because, it is true and when I did that, my stomach is bloated. So, each time after I finish my meals, I will walk around the house or just sit on the couch waiting about an hour then I can lie down.

Maybe if we see this in a good way, we can find out that superstition is one good way on educating people. Just that sometimes the superstitions can get a little ridiculous and stupid. But it’s actually a way on making a person did not do something inappropriate. As to conclude, everything happens for a reason and people make these superstitions for a reason, not just to have fun.
