Beyond Human
Sometimes I think about what it would be like to have a superpower. Watching movies like Superman, Sky High, the X-Men movies, The Avengers, Thor, and Captain America increased my wanting of a superpower or anything related to a superpower. There are so many awesome superpowers that would be really cool to have. Some really awesome superpowers to have would be teleportation, zoolingualism, and telekinesis.
Having the ability to transport could be really handy. You would not ever be late for anything. You would always be on time. You could be getting ready to go somewhere and the very last second just teleport yourself to the place you need to be at. There would be no waiting at bus stops/subway stations or in traffic. There would not even really be a need for a vehicle if someone had the ability to teleport. It would be so easy to travel with teleportation.
Personally, I would love to have the about of zoolingualism. Zoolingualism is the ability to talk to animals and understand their speech/reactions. It would be amazing to be able to talk to animals. You could understand how they feel about certain foods/objects/activities by getting their input on it. You would know how exactly they are feeling everyday, and would know their likes and dislikes. Zoolingualism would come in handy with household pets. It could also be very handy with animals who are not household pets.
I think telekinesis would be another pretty cool superpower to have. Having the ability to move things with your mind sounds pretty awesome. One thing I would do with telekinesis if I had it is I would read a book whilst taking a bath. People do that now already without telekinesis, but with the ability of telekinesis you could have your hands in the water and not have to worry about getting the page wet. I would use the telekinesis to hold the book up and turn the pages whilst I am completely submerged in the bath water.
If I had any superpowers they would be teleportation, zoolingualism, and telekinesis. I think having a superpower would be pretty cool. There are many things you could do with any one superpower.
