special powers

When I was about 5 or so, I remember believing that if I held my arms straight out to my side, and made figure 8's with them, I would start to lift up off of the ground and fly.

I used to believe that I could fly, but that I had somehow forgotten how to do so. This made me very sad. I had a strong memory, one which repeated often when I was young (<6) of being able to fly by standing in the living room and hopping about on one foot. I could jump up and sort of grab onto the air, somehow, as if catching some invisible, formless gust of air.

I couldn't understand why I could no longer do this, but why I could remember it so clearly. I think, since I can even remember those memories now with great clarity, that I must not have been told about dreams; for dreams is what I have told myself my flying was, and nothing more.

I used to think that everyone had a certain amount of phsycic energy. Me and my friends would think of numbers from 1-100 and try to 'pick up' what it was. The scary thing was, we were always close and sometimes got it right, I still beleive it today! The people who know about this think it's mad, but life would be boring without some magic wouldn't it?

I think I'm phsycic

When I was about 3 I thought I could fly. I was going to be a witch for Halloween and all the witches on television could fly. So why couldn't I? I too my broom and my witch hat and jumped off the counter in the kitchen. Needless to say, I learned I couldn't fly the hard way.

When I was little I belived that all I had to do was run around this plant in my yard 5 times and flap my arms.Then I'd become airborne.I tried and it didn't work.Duh....And when I had dreams that I could do it,I kept trying.Which I finally came to the realization of the fact that it won't work.(I was 4 people!Can't blame me!)

When I was little I thought I could fly also(I think alot of kids did). I remember how I did it and everything: I would be walking and would fall foward, but instead of hitting the ground I would just sort of hover a few inches above it.

I used to believe your sternum protected your soul while you were alive, which looked kind of like a really bright yellow/white glowstick. I still sort of cling to that one, and I'm 26.

I thought I had X-ray vision and could talk to animals and they could understand me.

I believed FOREVER that all i needed to fly was enough plastic wegmans bags & a high enough jump point.i never had more than 2 bags, and the highest off the gruond i got was 1 foot.

i wanna go parachuting

when i found out about santa and the tooth fairy i decided that there were "other" things that adults were keeping from children...

I used to honestly believe that all adults could mind read - and i'd be taught how to do it once i got older too!

Until I was seven, I firmly believed that I could fly if I concentrated hard enough. You don't wanna know how many times I'd jump off of the back of my dad's truck or a tall rock or run half a mile only to jump into the air and come back down again. I actually convinced one of my friends that I could get him to fly too.

Until I was about 14 I believed that adults could read children's minds. I would always get really nervous if I was thinking about something naughty, and would keep looking around to check if anyone had noticed. I still actually worry about it sometimes, mainly around the opposite sex, and I'm 23.

I used to believe that when I was about eight or nine years old, that when bouncing on a bed I could most defiantly hover, but certainly could not fly.

When I was a little boy I used to belive that when I was very concentrated I could fly, so I jumped in my pool in order to fly but I didn't realize that i couldn't fly and I got hurt in my head with th water. Now I do not believe I can fly and i think I was a stupid little boy.

When I was a child, I used to believe that when I had new sneakers, I could run faster. One day I told my parents that I wanted a new pair because I had heard that crazy story and when my parents bought me a new pair, I tried and I really felt I could do it ):

I used to believe that if you jumped off the top of a bunk bed, you'd magically gain superpowers.

I used to believe that my dreams were real. I never gave up trying to fly, if I could do it in my dreams then why can't I in real life?!

When i was about 5 years old, i used to believe that everything i thought people could hear!
