When I was little, my dad was a traveling salesman and I would go with him alot. He would tell me that the big stacks of hay in a farmers field was where the Indians were buried! I passed this one on to my own kids!

I use to believe that when people died, they really just turned invisible, and the casket ws just a memorial to burry in their place. I was wrong when I went to an open casket funeral.

I use to think people would only die on their birthday when they became a certain age, but then my grandpa died of cancer. . .

When my grandma is dying, I shut all doors and windows. I used to believe that by shutting all access to air, the soul of the dying person would stay with the body. Then the person won't die.

When I heard that someone had died and were going to be buried, I thought that their body was just thrown into a hole and covered up with dirt.

I used to believe that when people were cremated and buried in small graves, that they were buried head upwards. So they were standing underneath the grave, and whenever I accidently walked over them, I thought I was pushing their feet into the centre of the Earth.

When I was little I thought for some reason that peoples souls looked like black mini wheats, but they were a bit bigger, about the size of a beach ball. When you died they floated out through the top of your head up to heaven sorta like a helium balloon.

I believed one of the greatest dangers you could face was quick sand. I was scared to death of it.

I was two when my mom told me that Doctor Suess died. For some reason I thought he was the guy who made animal crackers.

I thought everyone lived to be exactly 100 and then died on their 100th birthday (if they didn't die from accident, murder etc before then) Later when I learned about life expectancy I thought everyone in that country lived to be exactly that age and then died.

When I was young, my Mom planted flowers on her relatives' graves. So one day she said to 4-year-old me, " We're going to plant flowers for great grandma."
I replied, "Yay, we're going to visit grandma!"
"You know grandma's not really in the cemetery," she said, worried about me.
"Of course! Her body is in the cemetery, but her head I'd in heaven!"
She swears I said this in a vice that suggested she was stupid.

I used to believe that death come to visit you.

I used to believe that I couldn't pass by the cemetery at night because the dead people would wake up.

I used to have really bad separation anxiety as a kid and whenever my parents would go out I didn't want to look out the window because I used to believe they would be dead on the ground as soon as they left the house because the air was toxic for adults or something.

I used to think that, for example, if your parent dies before their parent, their parent is no longer your grandparent, and if your parents both die, your living sibling is no longer your sibling.

When I was very young, I assumed that false teeth were taken from dead people's teeth

When i was a little girl, i used to believe my parents were immortal

One day my parent told me they would always be present for me. When my parent told me this
i though my parent was immortal.

Several years i learned the truth. People were not immortal ! Every people can die !
I was suprised and disappanted
