myths to me are beliefs, guidelines of our ancestor in living here on earth. Its like their unwritten laws, i guess its their way of conserving our species, haha. Anyway, some are just so crazy and some are logical. Most of them makes me wonder, if i end up having bad luck or something weird or crazy was it because i didn't follow the myth? sometimes i just thought it wouldn't really hurt to try and believe in it.
so here i am, asking you to share your myths in life, i know different culture would have different myths.
one of the crazy myths i heard in our culture is that you should not sweep at night because that way you would be sweeping off the luck. now, I don't think i could sleep with all the mess my child makes during the afternoon. Maybe that's why i ended up so unlucky! haha.
oh, there's a lot more.... but i wanna hear yours. share them.

Well in my culture there even more myth to believe.
I guess if you believe some myth it will actually come true for you.
So myth is a matter of believe, the more you believe the more you have the effect of it.
So maybe its better to not believing any of the bad myth and just believe to the good ones.

..well, for me, if you believe in myths then it will likely have an influence in everything that you do.. The "SECRET" says, what the mind concieves, the body receives.. hence, if you believe in something, it will really happen to you.. Soppuse you believe in myths, there's nothing wrong if you follow it or obey it.. If you don't believe, then don't do it.. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.. What we need is for the heart, mind and body to go together in order to achieve something.. Some people I know of experience in bad luck resulting from something that they believe in and didn't do it..
