This reminds me of when I was about 8 years old. I read online that vaccines are bad, and fluoride in the drinking water was part of some evil plot. I told everyone about it and it took about a day for me to realize how wrong I was. I was embarrassed for a while, but every time I see something like this I feel so lucky I developed critical thinking before it was too late.

I wish I hadn’t to be honest with you. I wish I could have carried on relating to my family, ignorant of the problems of this world.

I miss believing in ghosts. I miss the comfort I got praying as I walked through a dark room. I miss the live music at church a few times a week, the big tent revivals, believing I was seeing actual miracles when faith healers called someone up.

I miss that short window in life when the only things that I knew related directly to me and my community.

I don’t miss any of it enough to actually, honestly go back even if I could, but damn.

I’m just worked up because a stray cat got hit by a car. There’s something wrong with me, I swear haha. Sorry for this.
