One Shouldn't Be Superstitious.

 

One Shouldn't Be Superstitious. 

Once upon a time in a quaint village, there lived a young girl named Lily. Lily was always fascinated by tales of superstition told by the elders in the village. She would eagerly listen to stories about black cats crossing paths, broken mirrors bringing bad luck, and Friday the 13th being an unlucky day.

One day, while walking home from school, Lily found a shiny penny on the ground. Remembering the superstition that finding a penny brings good luck, she gleefully picked it up and put it in her pocket. That evening, she excitedly told her family about her discovery and how lucky she felt.

However, as the days went by, Lily started to notice that nothing particularly lucky was happening to her. In fact, she began to feel even more unlucky than before. She tripped and fell on her way to school, her favorite toy broke, and she forgot to bring her homework to class. Lily couldn't understand why her luck seemed to be getting worse despite finding the lucky penny.

Confused and frustrated, Lily decided to talk to her grandmother, who was known for her wisdom. Her grandmother listened patiently and then gently explained to Lily that luck doesn't come from finding objects or avoiding certain days. Instead, luck is created by the choices we make and the actions we take.

Lily realized that by relying on superstitions, she was neglecting to take responsibility for her own happiness and success. From that day on, she stopped believing in superstitions and instead focused on working hard, being kind to others, and making positive choices.

As time passed, Lily noticed a remarkable change in her life. She became more confident, successful, and happier than ever before. She learned that true luck comes from within and that she had the power to create her own destiny.

And so, the moral of the story is: Don't rely on superstitions for luck; instead, create your own luck through hard work, kindness, and positive choices.
