When i was only three I saw an old movie where people had random glass eyes or something and i thought most people had glass eyes cause it made sense eyes are very sensitive. So i would try to poke people in the eyes cause i wanted to see if they had one.
A childhood belief about eyes
others believed things like this
- I was born brunette with brown eyes and dark hair, i thought people with blue eyes, had water in them.Anon
- I used to think that "cross-eyed" meant that people had X's for eyes, like dead people in cartoons.— Tim
- I used to think eyedust was made by people who lived in your eyes and made buns.— The world looks to me.
- When I was little my friend told me that if you snease with your eyes open you eyes will fall out!Anon
- when I was young I used to believe if I squinted my eyes and it was windy my eyes would stay like this forever— Jeanne
- if I watched too much TV, I would get 'googly eyes' as mom promised, and my eyes would pop out of my head.— claire
