I used to believe that the world was just infinite in all directions. I didn't understand the concepts of space and planets. I just thought that there was infinite "world" in all directions and that new land and ocean were always being discovered. The times when I believed that were wonderful and the world was still a mystery. Now that I know I feel that the world is no longer a mystery and am kind of depressed about it. Ignorance Is Bliss!
