It is just another day in Paridise.... I toss salt over my shoulder out of habit.. But i dont think it will bring me luck or keep demons away... It is just habit. I make my own luck.

Some old superstitions carry through.. I am a bit superstitious myself but I usually make light of it.. I will not kill a spider in my home, I will pick it up and take it outside and set it free. It's a big joke around here and I do it now for the humor in it but at one time, this was a serious concern with Sicilian people, a spider in the home was considered as good luck. Probably because everyone in Sicily had spiders.. LOL..

There is a deep rooted seed that many people have as left there from olden times.. Many hotels and business towers do not have a 13th floor. They will skip it and go from 12 to 14.. There's many of these oddities around us that are based on superstitions.
