How do curses come true?
Curses are often believed to come true through a combination of psychological and environmental factors. When someone believes in a curse, they may become anxious or stressed, which can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy. Additionally, the belief in a curse may cause the person to change their behavior in ways that actually bring about the negative outcome they fear. In some cases, curses may also be associated with specific rituals or actions that are believed to invoke supernatural forces, further reinforcing the belief in their power. Ultimately, the power of curses is rooted in the human mind and the ways in which our beliefs and actions can influence our experiences.
