Good morning everyone. Just a fun thing about me. As a child I used to believe that, the sun sleeps at night. That is what my mom told me so that I would also sleep and wake up with the sun and don't wake up late. Just a fun way to inculcate good habits. My day just started. I reached school and now it is 10:00 am here. I don't have invigilation duty today. So I am free for now. Will have nice discussions with my fellow teachers. Did you have any beliefs about the sun? How is/was your day?

I used to believe such story when I was a kid until I've realized that the sun never sleeps. Hardworking sun.

Ok.. now that was too much.. you were intelligent enough to look at the Encyclopedia but naive enough to believe that jack Dawson was a real person..

I didn’t hav me anything for the sun by the mood I really believed there was a man that lived on the moon or a girl name Alice was stuck there. For a long time I believed that.

@Sheali thanks. My parents made me believe that if I clapped my hands are windshield wipers would go off. For a while we made the kids think of they said Open sesame the automatic doors would open. We told them they where magic doors. Now the toilets have magic flushers.

@Sheali awwww! So cute! I don't think I had any beliefs like that as a child. I was aware at a pretty young age where the sun and moon goes. Though, I'm still not understanding how the moon can be seen during the day lol Like I almost understand yet still wondering how it's possible. Don't understand how it can be seen from all over the world at the same time when the world is round.

@Sheali That is interesting that she said that. There is no sun at night. What age did you learn about the sun?

not about the sun, but the clouds. i thought you could stand on them like they do in Peter Pan. but the first time i went on an airplane and i saw we went right through the clouds, i was devastated
