The moon follows you

I used to believe the moon was following me. When I was in the second grade, I was taught a little about the moon, but still didn't believe it.

You know when you move around at night, look at the moon, and it looks like it's moving? Well I saw this when I was about 7 and thought it was following me personally and plotting against me... 0.o

The moon is gonna get me...

when i was little my mom would try to keep me busy while driving home in the car at night by telling me to look out the car window and watch the moon follow us home. i thought the moon actually moved along with the car for the longest time, and it made sense since the moon was there when we would get home.

I used to believe the Moon followed me because Jesus was driving it. I thought he was in the center of the Moon, and he could see me. I cried out of fear every time my family went driving at night until I was 8.

when i was really my dad would give me an invisible string and said he tied it to the moon which is why it always followed us, every nught when we where in the car he would take a paaper bag and say heres a star string throw it out the window and a star will get stuck to it

I used to (and still kinda do if I'm real bored on car trips) That the moon followed me. I would somtimes get frusterated that I couldn't follow it. That it was always following me, but never the other way around. I felt kinda special though. I would sometimes try to "trick" it, to see if I'm really that special that it wants to follow little old me around!!!

When i was little i used to think the moon fallowed my moms car as we drove down the road. I never understood why it would be following our car.

when I was 5 years old, I thought the moon was always following me wherever I go. Many times I tried to run fast but then I can still see the moon behind me, as if it's trying to race me or something. And then I tried to walk slow. Yeah it's still behind me. Then I tried to walk at different paces.

I was so naive!

When i was about 2 i was sitting in my car seat staring out the window. It was late one night and all of a sudden my mom said i started crying non stop so her and my dad pulled over and they said i was looking at the moon, my mom told me later i was upset cause i thought the moon was following me home.

When I was little (was about 4), I used to think the moon was following me.. While riding in the backseat of the car I said "My moon is following us, hurry up!" and my dad jokingly said "It's lonely." It scared me.

When i was younger and going home at nights I sed to think the moon was following me. I would try to duck down in the seat trying to hide from the moon...nuch to my dad's amusement.

When I was little, I used to believe that the moon followed us home every night.

Mae

I used to believe that the moon followed me home when we were in the car. My sister said it followed everyone home, but I didn't beleive her because there was only one moon so it had to be for me.

I thought that when I walked along at night the moon followed only me.

When I was about 5 years old and riding my tricycle on our street, I would go as fast as I could because the Moon kept following me. It didn't matter whether or not I was going up or down the street. It was still chasing me. I couldn't outrun it!

I used to believe the stars, moon, sun followed us. I was mesmerized that no matter what, it was always moving right along with us (smile)

Sabrina

When we would be driving at night, I used to believe that the moon was following me. Every so often it would disappear behind a tree and I thought I'd tricked it!
