I would like to be able to draw. Anything that was in my head. All these extremely cool things. That would make me happy

Write and draw my own comics. Maybe act.
There are several:
- Reading really fast [say, five seconds per page]
- Running really fast [say, three minutes per mile]
- Flying
- Reading minds [at will; I wouldn't want this to be involuntary, because that would be wierd/annoying/invasive at times]
- Singing
- Playing the cello [I used to, but haven't touched it in years... it's gathering dust in a closet at the moment]
- Playing the piano
- Playing the violin
- ... playing any musical instrument
- Being able to jump five times higher than my height, from a standing position
- Ability to snap my fingers and have my house instantly neat and tidy
... etc.
songofsappho wants superpowers. Is that included in the criteria for talents?
This is going to sound cheesy but,
I would really like to have a talent of understanding the world around me and the universe.
And, of course, be talented in everything.

Ceci n'est pas une eii.
I'd want to be able to sing the depth of what I feel but never seem to be quite able to express. Actually, I'd take a talent in writing or film-making or whatever if I could just do that.

I want to absorb information like a sponge. I learn it once and never forget it.
I want to be a savant of some sort minus the autism. Kind of like those people who can multiply huge, huge numbers in their head. It's not the most practical of skills, but it's still impressive.
I want to be able to eat and type and smell with my feet.
I want to be able to see behind me without having to turn around.
Drawing has always eluded me.
Sorry, it's not. Unless you can do it without gaining an ounce and not die from heart attack.

With my freeze ray
I will stop the world
With my freeze ray
I will find the time to
Find the words to
Tell you how
How you make
Make me feel
What’s the phrase?
Like a fool
Kind of sick
Special needs
Anyways
With my freezeray
I will stop the pain
It’s not a death ray or an icebeam
That’s all Johnny Snow
I just think you need time to know
That I’m the guy to make it real
The feelings you don’t dare to feel
I’ll bend the world to our will
And we’ll make time stand still
That’s the plan
Rule the world
You and me
Anyday
Love your hair
("What?")
"No I . . I, uh . . . love the . . . air"
Anyway
With my freeze ray I will stop –
Moonlight will fall
Winter will end
Harvest will come
Your heart will mend
Music. I love music and I'd love to be able to create it. I have my daughter in piano lessons, which she LOVES, and she wants to take voice lessons too. It brings me as much joy to see her learning it as it would bring me if I could do it myself.

Anything else I'd rather learn through trial-and-error and build callouses to, or I don't give enough of a shit about. There's no point if it comes easily, and being a shitty photographer isn't as inherently emotionally depriving.
There are ways of practicing such....
Start with yoga, maybe.
Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.
