I don't want to put a damper on the latest trend of burning sky laterns and its religious significance but on a serious note, pray tell, what kind of luck are you trying to blow in when you light one of those things up in broad daylight other than the luck of choking on the hazardous smoke and having someone see you gasp for air without the use of a flashlight? I guess it's better for you and all the people around you to inhale your "good luck" pollution because it's nothing like breathing the fumes of caring idiots who burn uncollected trash, discarded tires and plastic products because they're afraid it'll encourage the stray dog population on earth.
Here's a new trend that celebs and fashion bloggers (because they're mightyly influential these days, just like sellers of miracle healthcare products and super charged drinking water) should start, get dressed up to plant a tree and then convince everyone that it'll bring good luck. It actually might. And the risk of you dying in the process would be significantly low and less tragic than say, burning up in flames from all that hairspray. Also I wouldn't have to check if my inhaler canister is almost empty every time I decide to open the window for some fresh air. I'm pretty sure this activity will be able to increase your life expectancy more than fire and smoke and looking up at all those lights in the dark sky. Plus, have you never heard of stars?
