On the summer of my 12th year, I started and stopped the rain at will. I did this on numerous occasions, and every time I made the request, the sky complied. I wouldn\u2019t say that I was surprised. I had such a confidence at that age. But I did feel grateful and delighted. I was often in the presence of my childhood best friend. I tested my ability on a sunny day, clear sky, and I was able to bring in the rain. After my 12th year, I never attempted to call the rain again. I was afraid that I wouldn\u2019t be able to recreate the phenomenon, and that would mean that it didn\u2019t truly happen.<\/p>\n

Four to five years ago, while working in the old port of Montreal, I encountered a situation where I felt safe enough to test this power once again. I felt safe because I had a good relationship with my colleague Patrick. I felt safe enough to accept failure. That morning I got a ride to work with a large painting that I had to bring to school in the early afternoon; I was also a student. It started raining heavily, and when we looked at the weather forecast for the day, it was heavy rains at 100%, hour after hour, late into the evening. Patrick teased me about my predicament. Since the mood was playful, I said to him, \u201cOh yeah, well when I was 12, I stopped and started the rain at will\u201d. I recounted the story in a way that implied that of course this must have been a peculiar coincidence, an anomaly. We both laughed at the idea. And then he challenged me: \u201cOk Ren\u00e9e, get the rain to stop!\u201d Since it seemed so unlikely, and I felt that there wouldn\u2019t be a real expectation that I would stop it, I decided to give it a try. I placed myself in front of the large window and sent out my request. I repeated the request a few times in between taking calls, Patrick reminding me along the way that the outcome was not looking good. Just before 1:00, as I was leaving work, I laughed with Patrick as we looked outside at the rain, or I should say non-rain. It had halted, in its place a dense mist. He couldn\u2019t believe it. I made my way to school under the cease-rain, and minutes after I entered my destination, the rain started pouring down. I texted Patrick to let him know that I had made it, and that the rain just started back up. I still don\u2019t know what he really thinks of the incident. I felt grateful. I haven\u2019t made another request since.<\/p>\n
