At the age of 6 my Old best friend (who moved away 5 years ago) "Megan" told me that if you closed your eyes on the tire swing and said, "I wish I could fly!" 100 times going really high, that you'd fly! But when I tried it, I thought i did something wrong. So I asked Megan and she said that I must not have been ment for flying!
