When I was kid, I wanted to fly. (Imagine hovering next to a plane! Cool!)

When I was in my early teens, I wanted to be invisible. (Picture of all the buildings you could sneak into!)

When I was in high school, I wanted to read minds. (Think of all the power you’d have!)

When I was in undergraduate, I wanted to stop time. (So much work! So little time!)

Now, I don’t want any of these things. The superpower I’d choose is to experience the world in its entirety. To read every good book. To learn every language. To learn every new skill.

When I went into a book store, I used to always go straight to the business section. That was what fascinated me. But now when I visit a book store, I head straight for the classics. If I pass by the business section, it doesn’t interest me anymore. My priorities have changed.

And maybe in a few months, I’ll go straight to a different part of the book store or have a new superpower I want.

We are always changing. Sometimes, it takes a question or a shop to reveal one’s metamorphosis under the surface.
