IT’S ONLY SUPERSTITION
Loved the article on different superstitions we hold. I remember my Irish mother holding many, and I heard many as I was growing up. The one that made the most indelible impression was when my mom would say to me, her singing child: “Sing before breakfast, cry before night.” She was usually right, because inevitably I would be spanked before the day was over!
