Chinese Curse

| No Comments

An old favorite of mine is one you've probably heard before and even used before: May you live in interesting times. I looked it up on Wikipedia last week because I was using it in a presentation and found that is really the first of three curses of increasing severity, the other two being May you come to the attention of those in authority and May you find what you are looking for. Check out the Wikipedia article to learn about the curses uses and how they've been popularized.
