When asked what superpower you want, you may instantly have a favorite response ready. I will tell you right now that your answer is wimpy and wrong if you didn’t say telekinesis. That’s right the ability to move things with thought is obviously the best power anyone could ever have. You may disagree or have several questions so read on and let me convince you.
You may ask,” But what about ______ ability or super_________?” Sorry anything you put in the blanks is inferior to telekinesis. If a person can truly move anything with their mind then just about every other power is included with telekinesis. If you want to fly, you can move yourself to the sky with your mind. If you have bullets flying at you they can be moved by your mind or you can move some thick metals in front of you to block them. If you want to be invisible you can bend the light to make it so people cannot see you. If you want to dismantle a bad guy down to his basic elements, just think it and it is done. Planning a trip to outer space, make a pressurized bubble filled with oxygen. If you are feeling a little old just pump some more youthful hormones into your body and iron out your wrinkles. If some one else is sick and needs some healing just think the germs out of them or bring the broken bone particles back together. No matter the situation it can be solved by moving things with your mind.
Unfortunately most portrayal of telekinesis shows things like moving cups across tables or lifting spaceships out of a swamp. If someone could really move things with their mind they would be unstoppable.
Time travel beats that buddy. As long as it can be used like Hiro on Heroes. Of course he’s an idiot on that show who never takes the easiest course. Instead of just freezing time and killing the bad guy, he’ll take endless loops through time to try and change a tiny little variable that might or might not make a difference.
I liked the first season of Heroes until the end of it when there were a lot of lame problems with writing. Sounds like they just kept writing that way.
I already have the power to time travel though. It is not as fun as you’d think. http://everydaynormal.com/time-travel-is-real/
That sounds kind of like the end of Lawnmower Man 😉 I agree about the telekinesis, but in my dreams where I’ve had that ability (including the flying, btw), it always takes a lot of mental effort.
