You stole my line (hahahaha)
In truth however, we really do possess certain "super powers" we're just not aware of them now days; very natural aspects of our more primitive self, such as the awareness of environment that was known to our hunter-gatherer ancestors, even a recent as a century ago let alone several thousands of years ago, before mass civilization took root.
I've mentioned this and even encouraged people to compare certain foundations associated with Mentalism with the actual Occult principles and training techniques so that one can have a better grasp as to the "reality" behind such things; why our more primitive ancestors saw the use of what we view as simple skill-sets and unconscious awareness as something "Magical" and thus, known only to Mystics, Shaman, and Prophets. The fact being that such people weren't frauds or charlatans at an intentional level, just that this and that "thinker" discovered and could better define what the ancients knew and perhaps "misunderstood". After all, Magnets (Loadstone) was still seen as something demonic by the Church well into the 16th century let alone something like electricity.
I do enjoy my paranormal skills; being able to discern things about others, my environment and even locate lost items or for that matter, running water. But I likewise enjoy giving folks perspective on these things so they aren't blind and susceptible to potentially dangerous scenarios.
