As a child I would hear the the hymn, "The Old Rugged Cross". When it stated, "my trophies at last I lay down", I had mental images of people laying sports trophies on their sides and I couldnt figure out why they wanted to do that.
A childhood belief about hymns
others believed things like this
- I used to think that "cross-eyed" meant that people had X's for eyes, like dead people in cartoons.— Tim
- i used to beleive the people on tv lived in the tv and couldnt ever get out— crystal meth
- when I saw a sign with a deer on it I always thought deer had to cross the street by it. like a cross walk— only me
- I used to look for an Indian along the roadside because of signs that stated
"watch for fallen rock"— pam petry - I used to believe God had a pet tortoise. There was a hymn we sang that went "Great things he hath taught us"— Lozza
- I used to believe that I would never grow up, because I "wanted" to remain a child. Ha. That one fell throughAnon
