Off to save the world


(Image courtesy: Google)

We have all craved for some sort of super power at least at some point of time in our lives. Could have been when you were a kid and was smitten with Batman/ Superman/ Spider-Man if you are a boy or Power-puff girls/ the princesses' of fairy tales if you are a girl. Chances are we have all dreamt of it.

But then, as you grow older, so do your dreams. How I wish I could read his mind or how I wish I could just time travel back and correct my mistakes. I want to fly! Or even how I wish I could have just turned invisible right now! 

But for instance, if I could select just one among any of the superpowers, I guess I would simply go for turning invisible! What fun one can have. Imagine being able to go for all those movies without having to buy tickets! Sneaky, I know. But, still! We should be allowed to break the rules once in a while, right?

And think of all the fun you can have spying on those people whom you hate? Not just the people you hate, you can even turn it around for the welfare of the nation as a whole. Just like how our favorite super heroes saved our planet from aliens and mutants, you could be the next big thing! People would worship you, kids would adore you. And you, can relive your secret wish! Now, where's my cape?

  2. invisible.... that's one of the many reasons facebook gained popularity over orkut
    one wouldn't be able to see who visited their profile.... one could sneak in...

    2. Yes it's a very popular movie in India....'Mr.India'...where the hero finds a bracelet which when slipped on, makes him invisible. We grew up watching this movie a couple of times :)

  6. Wishful thinking :)
    There are little boys and girls who adore super heroes, without being aware of gender or being biased. No harm in a little girl wishing to be a Superman or a little boy wishing to be one of the Power puff girls!

    1. Oh yes :) I had recently seen a post on FB where the boy had dressed up as a princess and his Mom thought that it was bit too early to be imposing gender on him. I think that was the cutest post and that parenting was done right :) Thanks for reading!

  8. Hahaha Miss India indeed! That sure would be fun. If I could choose a super power, it would be to put thoughts in people's minds. That way I can get all I want, including movie tickets! :)

  10. We both turned up writing rather similar! :D
    Now I suspect that maybe it's not so uncommon to wish to sneak up on people. :P
