special powers

When i was little i used to think that if i thought hard enough, i could move things using my mind.
because of that i would sit for hours trying to move the remote or pick up my clothes. it wouldn't ever work and i would just walk away dissapointed.

I used to believe that I could fly! I would run as fast as I could then jump. I had a dream about it once. I was running then I leapt into the air. Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't.

when i was a kid I used to believe that my mother always knew what i was thinking about. It was scary but then I thought that if she was able to do it, me too, but i would need to let time pass because I thought that this ability was developed with years of training.

When I was 5 yrs old, I believed that I could fly. I had a vivid memory (still do) of flying in my bedroom. I swore this tale was the truth until I was about 14 yrs old! I finally stopped telling it though. Now I'm not sure if I stopped believeing or I got tired of defending my story *wink* I still think of this memory from time to time and smile to myself.

As A Child, I used to believe I could fly via off my heels if I ran at a certain velocity and certain length of distance from the woods outside our house if pointed directly at a certain set of trees

Until my little cousin turned eight, she firmly believed that she could fly on her birthday. On her eight birthday, my cousin was going to prove this to her mother by flying off her bed. She broke her ankle.

I used to believe that if I heard a noise, I could mimic that noise! I guess I was about 6 when I tried it while watching cartoons. I was Crushed!

when i was little i made some paper fairy wings and i thought that if i put them on they would reeli make me fly. my mum didnt tell me otherwise and played along saying "just dont go over the fence!" and i was reeli excited and climbed on top of the garden table and jumped off... i didnt fly lol i was reeli disappointed and to top it off i had a sprained ankle too!

i started to believe that i had special powers when i was like 7.I believed that i could talk to my pets telepathiclly(and my pets talked back),that i could read people's minds,that i could pick up things with my mind and that i had other powers that i can't remember.
Talking to pets- when we would always come home from shopping or something there would be trash on the floor from the dog and my mom asked who did it.Then i'd ask the dog telepathiclly.the i would look at my mom and tell her that the dog said that bill(i tought that he was my dog's imaginary friend) did it.She would play along too.
reading people mind's- i started believeing this because i would finsh my mom's sentences before she did she always sadi i read her mind.
about picking up things with my mind i read it in some fanisty book for little kids i thought it was ture.People even told me i could but i didn't listen i always thought i could.
sorry enough to say that when i started 6th grade one of the teahcers sent mme to the guidence consular because they thought i had some porblems.Then the guidence consular had me tell the story about it then she told me i couldn't do any of those things(and that bill wasn't real). I had to go back every day(only about 2 1/2 weeks) until i finally stoped saying i could do those things.

For a a while when I waas maybe seven or something I thought I could "communicate" with dogs.
A year and a half after getting over that (I got over it "speaking dog" when I was 8) I thought I was a werewolf and could accidentilly turn into at any moment.

when i was 4 or 5 i had a dream that i could make things float using my mind. i actually thought i could do this, but with extreme concentration and when no one was looking... yes i actually tried it,it didn't work :(

I used to believe that if you jumped off your bed and flapped your arms efficiently you had to be capable of achieving lift and could thoretically, yet briefly, sustain flight over your bedroom.

Unfortunatley, this only worked a few times in my dreams and the actual realtime simulation attemps accumulating around age 9 were unfortunately completely unsucessfull....I started exercising more after that because I calculated that I (my body) was the only possible reason my attempt at flight had failed this time...(next" part II - I did it - my room looks so big from up here! :> )

when i was about 3 or 4 my parents told me that i could turn on the light in the living room by telling it to. and so whenever i told the light to go on they would run into the other room and turn on the light.

i used to think i could make things move with my mind, i was very convinced that i made some of my juice disappear from my cup, so one day i told my sister i had those powers and she laughed at me

In 2nd grade (mummbldy moons ago) I wished with all my might to be able to see the Space Shots for REAL! Six months later we had moved to Florida and were living so close we could watch from the back yard. The ground shook and the windows rattled.

Never mind that my father was an Aerospace Engineer, I was conviced that it was all due to my wishing. I was VERY careful after that to only use my powers for Good!

I used to thing that I could fly by jumping off of roof by using only an umbrela

I used to believe that if I really wanted to, I could fly.I could just think about it real hard and it would come true. I guess you could call it some sort of "Peter Pan Complex". I would have dreams about it at night, and they seemed so real. I could fly to school, fly down the hall, anywhere! It was so exciting.

I used to think i was the onlyone who could hear myself think.I wondered why i was the only one to do this.I thought i was talking in my brain and talking to other peopleinside me
