This American Life

This American Life 





I would pick the power to fly, basically because I love the outdoors and would love nothing more than to be in the clouds looking down on it all just flying around with no help or need for any other equipment, just a person in the sky. I suppose I would try to use this power to spread karma throughout the world. Trying to right wrongs and correct mistakes for people. Flying is kind of a cheesy power to want because, who wouldn’t want to fly?! But it would be great to have the ability to fly.
Superpowers have many issues, among them and probably the most obvious one is it gives people power, which in most cases is not a particularly good thing. Power gets to people’s heads and people’s heads get them in trouble. Being able to fly is a great super power, however is never the sole super power of any super hero. The reason super heroes can be so successful is their mass of special powers and in Batman’s case, special weapons. I feel the need to mention Batman because he has no super powers besides intellect and he does a lot of good for the city of Gotham. Having powers in the wrong hands of people can make for some disastrous and destructive issues amongst the community.
