I had never heard about the saying that people born in the Year of the Sheep have bad luck until I was 30 years old. People I know born with the sheep zodiac sign all have great fate. I don't believe in such sayings, although my parents and relatives believe in cultural traditions related to zodiac symbols.

My life has been smooth, and that is because I often get help from friends and relatives, and also because I'm lucky and work hard.

I'm expecting my child to be born in 2015, and I don't mind that he or she is going to be born in the Year of the Sheep. I plan to dress my child in red, although I will not wear something red, because it feels weird for a man even just to wear red stocks.
