random beliefs
When I was little, I was always happy to have the top bunk so that in case a volcano erupted nearby, then I would be safe from flowing lava.
I grew up near Chicago.
When I was young I believed that the windmills found in farmers fields were used to keep the cows cool.
When my adult son was young, he would never open the front door for me unless I could prove that I wasn't wearing a mask that looked identical to his Mum!
I used to think that if I made the side mirror face the other mirror in our bathroom, I would be able to go into another world, like Alice through the Looking Glass.
My mom used to always tell me, "You are what you eat." So I thought that if I ever ate a bug, or something still alive, I would turn into it.
If you didn't eat the crust on your bread "Mr Crust" would stand at the foot of you bed and haunt you at night. Another tid bit from my Mother's childhood, past on through the years.
When my sister was little, she thought that the designated hitter at a baseball game was the hitter that didn't drink!
I used to believe that clothes are invisible humans just staring at us
When I was little, I used to think that cartoons were people that dressed up with black lines around them. How oblivious of me!
I was born and raised in NY. For the longest time, I used to think that every single person in the world was born in NY and then decided to either stay or move away.
