When I was little, I used to think that the tiny little lizards that sometimes scurried quickly around our home were crocodiles.
When I was little, I used to sometimes lay on the floor and imagine what it would be like to walk on the ceiling. I would dodge every flush light and feel the popcorn ceiling crustiness between my toes.
When I was little, I used to think that if I was ever alone, the world would end and I would be the only person left on earth.
When I was little, I was so afraid of elevators that I would leave home 1 hour before it was time for school so I wouldn’t have to take the elevator alone. I would ride down to the first floor with my elder siblings so I wouldn’t have to ride alone. Then, I would wait in the front lobby of our building to see my friends crossing the street and meet them outside as though I wasn’t waiting for an hour.
When I was little, I would pretend that I wore braces. It was a great past time for me to push staples between the gaps in my teeth. Now, I honestly wonder how I never choked.
When I was little, I wanted to wear glasses so badly. I would often try on a few pairs when I went into a store where glasses were sold. (Who am I kidding? I still do this!)
When I was little, I used to think that life would be great when I was big. Funny thing is…now I just wish I was little again.

When I was little I used to think that tv shows were actually taking place in my tv 🤷🏾♂️
Oooh that’s a really good one. The imagination of children eh? I have another one for you… when I was little I used to think that sharks could come up all of the grates at the bottom of swimming pools! Needless to say I was hesitant to get into swimming pools.
When I was little, I thought the pesticide sign you see on the grass was toxic and your legs would fall off if you stand on it
Hahahhaa wow!
When I was little I used to think that when I ate an apple and accidentally swallowed the seeds it would cause an apple tree to grow inside my stomach.
You too…I thought the same thing. Thank you for reading and commenting. 🙂
I wish I had a happy “when I was little…” I could say here, but when I was little, I wished I was white to make all the abuse stop, and that was the only thing I really wanted as a child
I’m sorry to hear that. That is so sad and horrible that they made you feel that way. I genuinely hope things have gotten better for you as an adult. Thanks for reading and commenting on my blog.
