I suppose as you age, you remember more and more. All the posts about shaving and increased hair growth made me recall my “off the wall” one-of-a-kind mother.
I admit it, I was a total “momma’s boy” and that’s probably why I’m pro-women. But my nutty mom had this idea: she believed the earth was FLAT! During my whole life she would argue with me about this — always saying, “A flat earth is what I SEE.”
I never knew if she was being serious, or if she was putting me on. Even during her last few weeks alive, she gave me no peace! She even had her own explanation about orbiting satellites: they went around the outer perimeter. And the stars, moon and sun? The whole thing was crazy.
But there it is. People believe what they see and experience, and that is the truth for them. As many of you have pointed out, thankfully that’s not how science works.
