Omens

I used to believe in them, as a child, from time to time. Like, about cats, or the famous kindergarten saying, "don't point at yourself," when kids enthusiastically talked about a new movie, pointing at themselves and acting out how they would cut up a certain movie character. But when I stopped believing in gods, I also forgot about superstitions, because they all come from the same bag. Apparently, with age comes the understanding of how absurd these things are.
