SuperPowers!

Everyone wants to be that hero in the comic books and movies. Starting young as children we wish to have super powers and have the super hero abilities such as super strength, flying, invisibility, super speed, and so much more. Imagine how much easier life could be if we had these powers. Not only could we save the world like the heroes in the stories but we could experience life in such a different way.

During the class, an exercise required us to choice a power we wish to have and why...  Having these powers could help save the world or also destroy it. Many chose powers that would allow them to take over the world, such as mind control, element control, and more. Things that could be used for good are not always going to be used that way. Look back at those movies and comic books and think of the reasons for the superheroes, the villains. Villains had powers and used them for evil. Many people today would think of using powers for evil as well… maybe not to destroy the world or intentionally harm people, but for their own benefits like taking over the world or controlling everyone’s thoughts and actions. I’m not looking to be the next Hitler here.

I chose mine not really based on how I could save or overtake the world, but how I would explore the world instead. I chose to have the ability of transformation as my power. Having the ability to morph into any person, animal, object, or element would allow me to explore the world and see it in any perspective! I could experience other lives and cultures and what it would be like to live their ways.

Imagine being able to breath underwater and explore the deep sea as a marine animal or being able to fly to new heights and seeing the world from an aerial view. I would be able to experience the speed of a cheetah, the strength of gorillas and lions... or simply be a fly on the wall for observations.

I'm not looking to take over the world or cause harm or problems for anyone. I just wish to experience this world is a variety of ways... seeing it through others eyes.
