I used to believe that i had the special power of controlling traffic lights.
When i was 7 or 8 I thought I was able to turn traffic lights from red to green by clenching my jaw for 5 seconds.
After I found out that my special powers were no longer working I figured that I had unconciously traded them for the special powere to change the shape of clouds
