What would I do if I had the ability to be invisible? I have to think about that for little while. I use the ability to help and to hurt. So the question is which would I choose? I'd love to play the part of a helper like the angel in "Angels in The Outfield". I'd love to take the bat of some unsuspecting little league baseball player, you know, the kind who never gets a hit and only plays because the coach has to play him at least two innings. I'd love to help him belt a home run, I'd love to see him, just once, be the hero of the team. I'd love to take some child who was having a horrible time with a test, take the hand and help them answer all of the questions. Of course the problem then will be, how will they feel the next time they try and they fail. Does that set them up for greater disappointment? I suppose what I would really like to do is use the power to help people. I'd love to see others succeed, I'd love to see them reach their goals, I'd love to see them with a huge smile on their faces because they did something they never though they could...but I want them to be able to do it again, and again, and again. So I guess that makes me a... teacher!
