I used to believe that lighting and thunder in the sky meant God was angry. I thought the rain falling was God crying. I also believed that the moon was God's eye watching us and the stars were all the people in heaven and a shooting star was someone going to heaven. My mom always told me that when it thundered, the angels were moving furniture around and that's why it is so loud.

When I was a child my Dad's mother was so frightened by Thunder storms she would unplug all elect. appliances and turn off all the lights and the whole family would have to sit in the dark middle of the room.

My father so hated this that as a small child he would take me out to sit in the car with him to watch the storm. When there was thunder and lightening he would say the thunder was the clouds banging together and the lightening the sparks from the bump.

I still enjoy thunder storms and passed on to my daughter the reason for the thunder and lighting

I used to be really afraid of thunder, so when ever there was a thunder storm I'd climb into my 'thunder box' (the box our dishwasher came in) with some cookies and juice. I was convinced my box was lightning proof, but just in case I'd make sure none of my clothes or toes stuck out.

One night when I was young, I believed that if I went into my mom's room it would stop the thunder from the storm outside. I went into her room and got in her bed, but to my surprise the thunder didn't stop. I never tried that again.

I used to think that electricity came from the ground in the form of endless lightning bolts (yellow zigzag lines underground). There was absolutely no doubt in my mind about that, so I never asked anyone until I just learned about it.

My mom would always tell me that when it thunder and lightening God and the angels were bowling and that when the lightening hit God had made a strike. Later in life I told my children this and it helped them not to be afraid of a thunder and lightening storm.

I used to have a tremendous fear of thunderstorms and I used to believe if I played with or touched anything black during a rainstorm, that it meant god would think I wanted thunder and lightning.

When heavy thunderstorms would come around and there would be lots of lightning, I thought that it was God taking pictures of people who did bad things. I told my little sister to never stand near the window when there's lightning, or else God might take her picture and get her in trouble. She was really scared about it and we'd both hide under the covers of our beds until the storms would go away. I eventually realized why I thought this--because an adult friend of my parents who was visiting during a heavy thunderstorm said that lightning was God just taking pictures with his camera in heaven. And then not too long after I saw on a TV show some criminals getting their pictures taken after being arrested for some bad crimes. They were black & white pictures. The lightning from storms would appear against a gray cloudy background. So naturally, I put all this together in my nutty little head. ;-)
