Now this is a question I have pondered a lot, especially with the movies that Disney has put out.
I would love to be stretchy like Mrs. Incredible. She could do so much! But...I don't think I would be in half those situations. Although catching the milk off the table would be nice, I think I would just have more to trip over!!
I have also thought about mind reading...like Mel Gibson in What a Woman Wants, or Edward in Twilight. I am always wondering what other people are thinking. It would be nice to hear all the good things BUT I don't have enough confidence to hear all the bad. I think that one would be the most hurtful.
So then I thought about all the superpowers I knew and I liked Jasper's in Twilight the best. He could project a calming effect on people. We worry so much. We have friends that come over that are in the middle of a divorce, or dealing with a sick parent, or bills, or anything. It would be great to be able to have them over for dinner and gave them an hour or two of peacefulness.
The power doesn't take the problem away, just makes it seem manageable. Kinda like the temple. This is how when I'm in the temple, I feel. Going to the temple doesn't pay the bills or put money in our account but it does make it seem like we'll get through.
It's just peaceful.
Maybe that's why I go almost every week since the new year!! :)
