If you could have one superpower what would you want? This is a pretty simple yet difficult question. I am pretty sure that everyone has at least thought about this question at least once in their lives. If you think about it there is no end to the superpower possibilities. There could be a superpower for anything but the most common and classic superpowers are the best. I have always wanted to be able to fly. Just thinking about passing through the sky and touching the clouds makes me envious of all the other superheroes who can fly. You would not have to worry about being late to things anymore, or traffic, car crashes, and many other troubles. Although, there is also perhaps the most popular and desirable superpower which is be super strength. Super strength is usually thought of as the first superpower one would think of and people usually relate this particular super power to superheroes. With super strength one could lift practically anything up and beat practically anyone up with fists alone. Super speed is also a great superpower. I like speed in general because it is just so useful at any time. Super speed is pretty limited though; obviously one receives the gift of running beyond the limits of a human. These are the three specific super powers that are the most obvious to me, clearly there are many other great ones but these three are probably my favorite ones. Other ones I can think of off the top of my head right now would be laser vision, invisibility, healing or regeneration, teleportation, telekinesis, telepathy, force fields, and shape shifting. The possibilities are absolutely endless. Imagine if everyone in the world had a super power, it could be seen as either good or bad.  Although, imagine the possibilities that could happen in such a world. Our society and normal life as it is now would cease to exist and we would all try to adapt to a world of superpowers. There would probably be superheroes I suppose. Some people who have had dreams of becoming one or perhaps thought it would be fun would most definitely try to do so. If people did become superheroes though, the world would be a better place.  Then again I suppose that if everyone did, then there would also be villains in the world.  I guess it is pretty obvious that some people would use their powers for evil; therefore there is no doubt that there would be the so-called bad guys in the world.  Since there still has to be balance maintained in the world the good has to clash with the bad. This make-believe world could be just like an action movie we see today in theaters I guess all super powers are great and useful one way of the other. Everyone also has their own different opinions and wants.

  1. I'd defiantly take teleportation. It's like super-speed only I wouldn't be held to the limitations of running. I could teleport to like the moon or something.

  2. I agree with Jordan in that I would choose teleportation, its something I always wanted to have and it would be pretty cool to just instantly appear anywhere you want
