Friday Forum

  What prompted those moneymakers to make a movie with a term like Friday the 13th?
 Whatever it was but they made millions out of this curiosity of common man/American. You can hook them up with anything it seems But then lot of people came out with lot of explanations good and bad factual and fantasy.
 There is something with number 13 advanced in the Western Culture with typical confidence as if it is all true. 
Unfortunately I have to admit that even my thinking is affected with it despite my genuine efforts to stay away from such thinking and that is what is prompting me to write this
 Can anybody suggest what can I do to get rid of that feeling? Whenever I am counting even in my worship rituals as I approach 13th number I wish not to stop there and go on to 15 (using odd numbers) or tend to stop at 11 as if the next odd number will bite me and yet I feel terrible for such unwanted thoughts. HELP PLEASE
