If I could have any superpower, what would I choose?

To be honest, I do not want to have any super power because superheroes always face a lot of troubles. Moreover, their friends, lovers, and parents also become the targets that evil monsters want to attack. However, if I have to have super power, I would like to have the ability to know everything that will happen in few days.

I think to have this ability is very safe and useful because I do not really need to deal with a lot of evil people or monsters. All I need to do is foresee what will happen and give warnings to police officers. Although they may not totally believe me, they still will put an emphasis on that matter. This ability gives me some advantages that others cannot. First, I do not risk my life to fight dangerous people or monsters. Moreover, they will not know I the person who try to destroy them, so I will be safe in any case. Second, I do not have the right to fight even kill people, though they are evil. Therefore, I want people who have the right to demonstrate real justice rather than a mighty bully beat up another poor bully. Like a famous Japanese comic , Death Note, Yagami thinks that he is the justice but actually he just a crazy and selfish guy who kills people whenever he wants. That is, he is just a notorious killer like his targets.

In addition, if I have the ability that makes me see the future, I can earn money by using this ability. Further, I can know the exact numbers of lottery even playing Black Jack in a casino. In other words, I do not need to worry about my income. If I have a lot of money, I can donate to charities. In this way, I not only earn my money but also help poor people. Therefore, this ability is better than the ability that enables a person to fly in the sky or throw fire balls. In other words, this ability can help more people.

All in all, I do not prefer to have any super power because the more power you have, the more responsibilities you need to bear. Nonetheless, if I have to choose one, I would like to have the ability that makes me foresee everything that will happen in few days because that benefits me a lot.

  1. I think if you can foresee everything that will happen in few days, your life will be bored. What do you think?

  2. I think we have to appreciate that we cannot foresee and foretell what will happen. Sometimes, we are so happy when we hear good news suddenly or face exiting events that we don't expect.
