TGIF WITH @jeaniepearl.... EPISODE 11

in entertainment •  7 years ago 

Waoh! @jeaniepearl; you are always on point with this TGIF series. I really love it. Continue to enjoy God's blessings as you blow our minds. And thanks to @mosunomotunde for the mentioned. I love you too.
Happy brthday to @oredebby. Greeting to all my Nigerian steemians and International steemians as well. I love you all.

To the Hot Topic: SUPERSTITION
Well this is my take on it. I don't believe in those things they call superstition, like the example you just gave in your write up. The question is what is the relationship between my sitting down on the stone or rock and growing tall? It sounded so crude an unintelligent for anyone to think like that, though we all believe especially when we were growing up as kids.
I also think the reason why we have things like this or believe in them has to do with our culture, our history as Africans, our upbringing, our reasoning and our value systems. I will not be able to explain all this now but maybe I will do a post about them later.
Let me give you one superstition:

When we were growing up then as kids we were told that anytime our tooth removes we should tie it to a stone and throw it on the roofing sheet of the house so that the Lizard will see it, eat it and give us another one. And we all believe it then because we want to have a new tooth just like we are told......(laughing). Isn't that funny and ridiculous?

Well, as for me I don't really believe in all those superstitions, I just believe they are all COINCIDENCE that are beyond our control.That is my take.

Thank you @jeaniepearl for this opportunity. One love dear
