About this episode
Friday the 13th has long been considered an unlucky day by the superstitious. Its origins seem to come from different times and cultures in history, from the Norse gods to the Knights Templars. Personally, I give very little thought to the day as my intentions are to live every day with gratitude and love.

0:00Welcome to this message from the mountain, coming to you from the foothills of the White Mountains here in New Hampshire. Today's podcast is titled Friday the 13th. Well, this is a day that is often considered to be very unlucky, both 13 and Friday are considered to be unlucky themselves, and the origins seem to be a little bit questioned as to where it started out, perhaps back to the north, or the thought that the night's tempers were rested on Friday the 13th and 1307 when there was the mass killing of a lot of the nights took place. In other words, over the years, it's just become a superstition that people that are superstitious worry about. I usually don't think about it, but seeing it's on the calendar day, I thought I would think about how we create in our own mind the type of day it's going to be. So if we set our mind up,
1:05that everything is going wrong today, then good possibility things go wrong. If we set up and send love back over whatever the origin of the mystery was in a healing faction for then, and just believe that we are doing positive acts of kindness today, then things go a different way. There will be filled with miracles, all kinds of wonderful things. It's your choice, how you view each day, whether it's a Friday the 13th or any other time in your life that you may have had things on a day that weren't pleasant, that you have the opportunity to change that in your mind, and to send love back, and to send love home, and to some thoughts on Friday the 13th. My name is Michael Athaway, and this is message from the mountain. It's my prayer. These words are only good to you and to be here, but thank you so much for listening.
