People
At times
Recoil in
Anguish that outsiders
See as
Krazyness, and
Even though
Various
Idiosyncracies
Determine logical
Evidence as supreme,
Krazyness over 13
Actually paralyzes
Those who never
Realistically look'd
Intrinsically at the fact that
All peoples
Perceptions
Hold
Oddball
Beliefs
In spite of
Actuality
© 2007 cynth'ya lewis reed. . .I love 13, it's the number designating the day my daddy and I and my sister and brother and daughter and one of my best friends were born on. And hey, we ain't nuts!
Paraskevidekatriaphobia is the fear of Friday the 13th.
Many of us are familiar with the verse: “This is the day which
the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
Psalms 118:24
However do you know what the next verse is? Psalms 118:25
“Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.” (Psalms 118:25)
That next verse asks God for salvation and prosperity.
For much of America, Friday is payday.
One of the top fears of adults is losing their jobs.
Thank God for this day.
Thank God for payday, Friday the 13th.

For us Muslims Friday is a good day, a day that we as a community are reminded to ponder what life's all about. To worship the Lord and none else.
Thank you for reminding me, Cynthia.
As usual your writings are thoughtprovoking.
Always sista Safi
Thanks for sharing
Peace be with you
