I am considering researching folklore and superstitions. In class we have been reading creation myths from different cultures, and I found it interesting to see the similarities and differences between each story, as well as its influence on the culture. I was reminded of how certain beliefs might cause superstition, and how superstition has been carried into our modern day world, evident in actions and expressions. I think it might be interesting to trace these superstitions back to their original stories and beliefs, and see how their meanings may have changed due to context and culture.
