You are granted one special power: What do you want?

Humans: we are probably the most powerful kind of creatures living on this planet, but we are always greedy for more.

We all have some sort of routine in our lives, and we oblige to it because that's how we function daily. Yet, we enjoy the thought of escapism, and if some of us are lucky enough, we have the time to plan trips and holidays.

But still, that is not enough for us. We even sometimes feel excited by the idea of being supernatural beings and even have discussions about the idea of having special powers.

So my question to you is this: If you had one special power, what would it be and why?

To read minds

Some people like the idea of being able to read someone's mind, but the reality is, would you want someone to be intrusive of your thoughts? Imagine if that person knew your every idea, creations, and feelings and selfishly used it for their own advantage. Imagine that you can never be alone in your thoughts and think of any good memories that feel precious to you, because someone will be looking at them too.

We don't even really have privacy on our smartphones, will the privacy of our thoughts be taken away too?

To be super strong

We always desire strength in every way. The strength to pluck up the courage and tell your boss that pizza Fridays aren't good enough, but a raise is, or the strength to carry a huge amount of shopping bags in one go, without you losing all feelings in your hands. Or what about the strength to fight off any criminal that might come near you, instead of walking home holding tightly onto a key for safety?

We all have a form of strength deep down inside of us, but the idea of having super physical strength has always appealed to us.

To be able to teleport

Ever woken up one day and dreaded the thought of your everyday route to work? Or have you ever felt so tired from an event that you wish with just one click, you'd already be home tucking yourself into bed?

The idea of teleportation is fantastic, but sometimes you can experience journeys that you might learn from or gain an adventure from. Your everyday commute could be boring, but what if something interesting happens on that one day you choose to teleport and you'd wish you were there to see it?

To become invisible

The idea of becoming invisible sounds cool, but how often do you want to come invisible and why?

You might be caught up in a boring meeting and before your company knows it, you've suddenly disappeared. Or you might want to become like Harry Potter and use your ‘invisibility cloak’ to find out the latest news. But what if you get used to being invisible, to the point that even when you’re sad you don’t want anyone to find you, as if you have disappeared forever.

Being invisible can have its upsides too, like if you want to sneak into the kitchen late at night and eat the last slice of cake without no one knowing that it was you. Or if you want a free ride on the bus or train as someone invisible.

So which one would you pick?

Which super power would you pick that would suit your everyday routine? Which one will give you the strength that you want and you would put it into good use?
