If you could have the superhero power of invisibility or flying, which would you choose? No one else on earth has superhero powers, and you would have only the one. State your choice explicitly and then explain why it is your choice. As you consider your choice, think about the following: What is the purpose of your chosen superpower? How would this superpower allow you to accomplish your purpose as a superhero? What assumptions do you have about being a superhero and your chosen superpower? What does your desire to be invisible or fly say about you? What are some specific goals you could accomplish with your superpower? What values inform your decision? There is no correct answer here. Your response should be no less than 350 words, but no more than 400, and demonstrate critical thinking in how you reached your conclusion with specific support.

Explanation / Answer
If i would have given a choice of selecting a superpower out of flying and invisibility, i would have chosen flying. I would have made the choice of invisibility but the point of satisfying my own demands as well the society's would have been a difficult one. Basically if i am given a superpower of flying (which almost everyone wishes to have) i would first of all see how did the birds feel when they actually learned to fly, knowing about the fact the wings of birds were not initially meant for flying but was for thermal regulation. Then i would start looking for such kind of people who is a great need for travelling far away places in case of their emergency. We have always seen in movies about a superhero saving the planet from evil forces. I would definitely try to be one of those provided i have been provided with the ability of immortality along with it. Evil forces in practical world not only means the alienic invasions but also the destructions and sense of apocalypse the human beings create in our world. It would be a huge achievement from a personal viewpoint if i can save a life or can make efforts to do something good in someones life, just like helping a old man to bring vegetables from the nearby market or helping a crippled to reach a hospital without much delays. Terrorism, which is haunting the people all over the world is something that i would like end. "The fear of every single minorities", that is something that i will like to diminish. The choice of selecting flying from the above options would show that i am person who thinks about "Infinity", someone who likes to see the beauty of the moon by comforting myself at the clouds. Flying makes birds see the things that we as terrestrial animals can never see. I would have seen the world with my wide angle view. How exciting can that be?
I want to end terrorism and that is only thing that the people needs right now in order to stay in peace. I can't think about flying everywhere out of no reason. I want to make it work. I want to justify the choice that i made, which may be in a personal level like helping my parents to make them happy by flying them to the horizon or international level by showing that the world doesnt need terrorism in order to stay happy.
