I love superheros. Scratch that. I love muscular men in tight spandex suits.
Today, I ask you: What’s your superpower?
I have a few.
First, I have the ability to almost instantly fall asleep at any place at any time. I must have a very quiet and restful mind because when I close my eyes, I’m out like a boner in a sweatpants.
Second, I have the ability to leave people with a little more love than I found them. I do my best to put my creative juices to good use – making the world a little bit more loving. I mean, that’s really what this blog is all about.
But enough about me. I want to know your superpower(s). Let me know in the comments below.

A few, all of which are beneficial from time to time.
I am quite literally a walking library. Near perfect recall of anything I have ever read. I am more than a bibliophile, I am a bibliovore. I also am as strong as an ox and can suck a golf ball through a 20 ft garden hose.

everyone has very mild superpowers.. im really good at judging if furniture can fit through doorways.. but for every very wild super weakness.. i get dizzy around small bins

The power of making people over eat at my house. Great at cooking up Italian foods.

According to my partner, because I’m American, my power is babbling…which can cause instant sleep in my foes. Everyone else thinks that my skills in the kitchen more than make up for the babbling.

Thanks, Jason. I never thought of it that way.

I have the ability to bring together groups of people that otherwise have no connection with one another. The diversity of my social circle is testimony to that.
I also have the ability to diffuse tense situations and I am unflappable in any emergency (having survived three near-death experiences unscathed in the past three decades).

Ah, yes. Good old kundalini rising. Great, ain’t. For me it is Shostakowitz, Concerto for Orchestra. Heaven!
As for superpowers, how about perfect pitch, and the ability to learn tonal languages with hardly any effort at all? One super powerful Swami once said i was a good listener. Does that count?
Be well,

If you really have a super power, traditionally, you’re not supposed to go about blabbing about it. So maybe my super power is knowing when to keep silent.
Watch and see.
Be well,

My amazing superpower is having the ability to allow people to be themselves around me.
People know that they can be completely them around me and share with me whatever they want with me. Nothing is ever too personal.
It is nice to have that power!

Being human is my Superpower. That means, I allow myself to live this life as holy and plenty as possible. I do dive into my feelings and I always try to understand them. Whenever I have a bad thought, I just whisper to myself “wrong thought”, and I try to understand where is it coming from, and as soon as I realize I’m human and I am allowed to have my little faults, I forgive myself and move on, and the bad thought just go away. I allow my self to feel happy, sad, joyful, upset etc.
This is my superpower. And it is the greatest power of all.
Peace out.

My superpower would have to be that no matter how I feel I can convince anyone the opposite. “The devils greatest trick was convincing the world he doesn’t exist.”
February 16, 2011 at 5:43 pm
I am a spiritual guide for others, creating Labyrinths for a walking meditation. I also am Wiccan and have had some amazingly intense experiences with the Spirit world. I keep it all kind of a secret because of what people thing of Wicca.
February 16, 2011 at 7:17 pm
my superpower is probably falling asleep anywhere too. i have fallen asleep at a nascar race, a rihanna concert, and i once fell asleep when i was standing strait up at school. i just cant sleep in my bed….anyway, my other power is to make friends easily. after a guy knew me for 3 days he asked me out……though he thought my name was samantha. im not popular, or pretty, and im not the smartiest. i just want to leave this world knowing i have touched someone.( hahahha it sounds kinda dirty…..:)
February 16, 2011 at 7:53 pm
Mine would be to make people understand that being gay isn’t a choice and make gay marrage legal
February 16, 2011 at 9:07 pm
I relate to and agree with the above 3 comments!! Thank you!
February 16, 2011 at 9:16 pm
My super power is the ability to write about whole worlds that reflect my feelings and dreams.
February 16, 2011 at 11:23 pm
My super power is humility. Being able to appreciate success because it has fostered change and betterment on the whole, not because it has fostered success and benefit for me.
February 17, 2011 at 4:26 pm
You Davey in spandex would be my superhero!..you better learn CPR tho’

My superpower is being able to “read” people and assess situations and dynamics almost instantly. I was actually tested for this and scored in the 96th percentile. Really great gift/skill to have in meetings and at the club! Apparently it comes with a high degree of Emotional Intelligence (so I’m told). We all have our gifts. The challenge is to share and use them for the greater good and as Davey suggests leave the minute/hour/day/year/world a more positive place than you found it!

I teach people a life-altering game. Happens to be my career work.
February 18, 2011 at 11:13 pm
my power is pissing people off almost instantly, and worst part is it’s a passive skill. even the most patient of people get pissed off at the clumsyness of my words. makes making friends rather difficult. im sure even someone like David would get pissed off at me eventualy…
February 19, 2011 at 8:57 am
my superpower is-that i can relate to thoughts and feelings not necessarily related to exclusively my specific age group.im in my fifties-and im always looking forward-very progressive-and it shows among the younger people i work with.—-for instance-if i wasnt sick with a cold and sore throat-i would be on my way to Madison-Wisconsin-im not in a union-but im highly supportive of the labour movement.i was a union cab driver years ago-after the military-and times they were tough-as they are now.—-the other superpower-if you can call that-is communicate in three languages-besides English-German-Polish-and Spanish-how many U.S.residents-can do that?its not very common-i love to think and communicate to others this way-i think its a good way of appreciating other peoples and cultures.i stump strangers-including a woman from Germany travelling on my train from Washington,D.C.to Pittsburgh-i never really realised this so-called super power-and how well i could use it.it was one of the most memorable trip-i ever taken.since im gay-it had nothing to do with sex-only bringing people together-in the lounge car.i shouldve been born with lots of money and influence-i couldve pursued being an ambassador or been in government.

oh-you must be a dairy farmer.i toured two dairy farms in Wisconsin this past Summer-its not easy work-it does keep you out of trouble,though.
February 19, 2011 at 9:07 am
i sure need to appreciate music more often-talk radio-is so nerve racking-we live in such an uncivilised world.music is one cure for the soul.
February 19, 2011 at 9:08 am
My superpower is my skill in linguistics and my outright honesty, which sometimes comes across as humor. In actuality I’m just telling the truth and speaking out my mind.
February 22, 2011 at 9:01 pm
I have an uncanny ability at judging someones character. I can tell right off the bat if someone is a complete fake asshole, while my friends nag and ang at me to be nice, on the inside I’m just like- I can tell this dude is a supreme douche- then eventually everyone else notices and is like, “Chris, we should have listened to you…” and I’m like, welp- you should have… I’ve had a few of my friends that are girls bring their boyf’s around me so I can “judge them” (so to speak). So yeah, I like to think that’s my super power

I Make Milk;) that has cleared up pink eye in a matter of hours, stuffy noses in a matter of minutes, stopped the “sting” from a bee in a matter of seconds, has been used on burns and cuts, it has fed my 3 children for the first 6 to 8mths Exclusively, and has cut down all 4 of our chances of getting certain cancers and numerous other benefits:D
Breast Milk! Not just for Babies anymore:P

As I once read in a blog from someone else, I already have my superpower. I can make time stand still. I am into photography and every picture I take is a photo of time standing still. I totally agree with that person and that is my superpower.
March 14, 2011 at 3:02 pm
I don’t have anything
, but if I did:
1) I would be able to run an electric current over my skin (self defence) – ever since I’ve come out at school and started watching Glee, I’m always worried that I might get beaten up like Kurt did.
2) I would have x-ray vision which I would be able to turn on and off (so that I can check people out through their underwear
).
Loveyouu <3
Peace Out xx

My superpowers are, mmmmmmmm, a cute smile I think, almost all of the time, when I smile, other people smiles too XD and I’m a good listener.
