The first answer which will come is a big NO. But common guys, wake up and smell the coffee, whenever something bad happens to us after an inauspicious event, we always blame it on the superstitions.
Deep inside our heart, there is a superstitious mind that gets awakened if something bad happens to us. I, personally am not superstitious, but 2 days ago, while going somewhere, a cat crossed my way. I never got any inauspicious thoughts or anything like that, but continued my journey.
Finally, I came home with a badly wounded leg and a torn pant (just a little bit). My pant was torn apart in such a way that it could not be sewed and I have to go and get myself a new one. Actually I had just tripped while playing but there was a kind of serious injury.
When I came home and was resting on bed, I thought that I play everyday, but never get injured, and today when that cat crossed my way, I got injured. So there IS some kind of logic behind every superstition and you DO get superstitious when something like this happens to you.
I am still wounded and face a lot difficulty in walking around, but much better than the previous days (Obviously). I would be alright by Sunday, I hope so. Do you get superstitious when such events occur to you? Are you Superstitious?
Regards,
AJ Rox.

There may be a logic behind your incident or there may not. It might be a sequence of events. However, these things happen in our life. We may call it superstitious. Things which happend to you was quite natural. Do you think that there had been some unseen force behind this?

I think that there was an unseen force as I was founding myself to be unusually more active in the play which led me to tripping down. So there must be some logic behind it.

Thanks for the best response.
You believe what your mind says. If your mind says there was a unseen force then you will feel it for sure. However, if this continues best thing to do is to engage with some religious or spiritual activities according to your religion. That will give you some relief.

Thanks for your response, again. You are correct, maybe religious and spiritual activities may help me come over these superstitions. Anyways, I am fine now and am experiencing no more pain from the wounds.

I would like to point out that in our society there is some place for it and people believe in it. I think there is some thing regarding this. As like human being the animals are also his creations and they have their own instinct. You are talking about the cat which crossed your way and u feel that you got injured. Listen We had to go for our morning walk daily. In our way a cat use to cross our way continuous for so many days. My wife was fearing why that cat comes in our way. You know though I am not superstitious but a psycho fear We used to stop for a while and then go or otherwise change the route. Believe nothing happens. Think that had we not changed the route or we had not stopped for a while if any thing worse happened what would have been our state of mind. I think when the cats quarrels and different sounds are heard these are the bad omens and I have experienced that on the roof of our neighbor the cats use to quarrel and sounds. Many things happens to them and now that house is a abandoned house no body lives there. How you see it, please comment is their any impact.

Yes, people do believe in all this stuff and I know why. Even though I don't used to believe in superstitions, an incident like this increased my belief. So there must have been a lot of such incidents with these people leading them to become superstitious.
