I used to believe that astronauts have landed on other planets.

When I was a child, I used to believe that moon followed me everywhere I went. I would look out of the car at night and see it in the sky, always in the same place.I thought it was watching over me like a guardia. I even waved at it sometimes! It made me feel special. Later, I leanrned it was just an impression and the moon didn't move with me. But for years I truly believed it was my moon.

When I was a little boy, I used to believe that the moon was alive and was following me everywhere I went during cars night trips.
Like one day, I was on the back seat of my dad's car during a long night trip. We went going to a place for the holidays and I kept on looking through the window for hours and hours. I was stressed because I thought that the moon was following us on purpose.
But nowadays, when I'm on a night trip, I sometimes look at the moon and I remember how much it was stupid and funny to think that.

Until I was maybe 10 or 11 years old as a child I used to spend hours on clear nights looking at the moon. I didn’t ever tell anyone but I believed it was a spaceship looking over the world and I was originally from there as my real home but I didn’t how to transport back and forth and my mission was to work it out and I wasn’t allowed to tell anybody.

When i was young, i used to believe that the smoke coming out of factories created clouds.

One day, on the road i sow a factory where there was smoke coming out and my older brother said to me "Look it's a factory that creates clouds in the sky", and he made me believe that every day when when we pass in front of the factory.

But one day i asked my mother a question "if the factory no longer works there will be no clouds ?" and my mother told me that my brother had told me was not true and that it was a joke.
I belevied this joke for two years !! Todays i feel so stupid to have believed that.

When I was young, I used to believe that the french words "brouillard"( fog) and "gruyère" ( a french cheese) were the same words because of their prononciaton.
So, I used to believe that the fog was gruyère. So, When I went outside and there was fog I hold my breath because I didn't went to have cheese in my lungs
I don't know how I discovered the truth, but now I find my reaction really stupid, cute and funny.
