This is something that has become a somewhat common practice in day to day life. Any idea why?
Well, with a grim origin, the habit of saying “God bless you” comes from the time when the black plague devastated Europe because sneezing was one of the first symptoms. The saying was simply a way to wish the sick person the best of luck with his condition.
