Who wouldn’t love to have superpowers?

Bloganuary day 17! Today’s prompt is:

What is a superpower you’d love to have?

Oh superpowers, how I love thee, let me count the ways!

This one feels like a bit of a cheat because I’ve already written several articles about potential superpowers and what my thoughts are about them. 

But that was a few years ago and after re-reading them I’ve come to realize that I’m just as indecisive now as I was back then!

Though I do still hold the opinion that unrestricted mind reading is a superpower I would not want. 

However, as for a superpower I’d like to have, I’d have to say telepathy. Which is different to straight up mind reading. But man can I ever think of a number of benefits for this ability. Of course teleportation is right up there with it. Along with shapeshifting, air control and immortality (but who’s counting).

And while this post hasn’t exactly tied directly to writing, I can say that the consideration of superpowers is very much tied to my writing. Since I write fantasy, I’ve worked in a variety of magic and superpowers with my world and characters. It’s a topic I’ve done a boat load of research on. 

If you’re curious about the musing I did on some superpower abilities, you’ll find them under the category of Mystica.. 

Is there a superpower you’d love to have? Or if you’re like me, several that you’d love to have?

    Haha, I already have some superpowers and am actively working on fully developing others. Many of these superpowers don’t need to be acquired in full to provide profound joy an Value. Such superpowers are for instance:
    Patience, Perspective-Shifting, Discernment, Discipline, and my favorite, Self-Moodicating. When I use that last ne, I can bypass all the steps of using other superpowers to get what I want which is usually for the purpose of making me feel good, I can just go straight to feeling good an wonderful and however I want. What A SuperPower!! The best! I practice this SuperPower daily and everything I do is geared to it development and enhancement.
    P.S. – I aspire to be my own superhero. 🙂 😀
    Had a nice pic to go with my semi-tease comment but couldn’t get it in here.
