So, I had to reply. It feels like talking into a void. But here goes; ME TOO!
I am really surprised that someone else has experienced that same, time altering feeling. I honestly felt as a child it was a bit of a super power, I would try to hone it down to a certain task or see how long it would last. It never even crossed my mind that it could be... well, maybe a bad thing. So far I'm okay, going on 26 having mostly only experienced that fleeting feeling in childhood. I remember coercing myself into that state whenever possible, you know those moments when you were all alone, figuring it all out. Whatever that meant for you.

When I first started reading the replies, I thought... oh, they mean something totally different but... moving forward in others experiences I realized there are a few of us that know exactly what it means. I've yet to experience, or need to experience that burst of what felt like will power, moving me through time. Stability helps I think. My childhood was rocked by instability. No sexual abuse but mild emotional traumas experienced by many of us with hard working, overly stressed, controlling parents, or mothers in my case considering we had too many step fathers to count any as a father. I hope it had nothing to do with that, I hope it really was just my spirit summoning strength to survive, whatever that meant to me at that time. You know, things are not always as bad as they seem. Wow. I just remembered again I'm not eight years old anymore. Life is wonderful and full of unexpected surprises. ENJOY the ride.
