PERSONAL OPINION
• I believe that superstitions are part of the
culture of a country since they are
internalized in its habitants. They are
actually part of everyday life for many
people. Moreover, they help identify and
unify a community.
• Psychologists say it can be dangerous to our
mental health to believe in superstitions
because people replace reason with
superstition. However, I think they are a fun
way to bring fortune and avoid bad luck. I’m
not superstitious but just in case I wear
yellow clothes in New Year’s Eve.
