Bless or curse

There are superpowers that we would sometimes like to have. For example: immortality, invulnerability, time travel, real magic, eternal life and youth, invisibility, divination, teleportation, telekineses or telepathy and many more. There are certainly cases where they could be very useful to help others and solve problems. But what if your arch-enemy, your vindictive ex-partner, an envious neighbor, a jealous colleague or an irascible boss also had such abilities. "With great power there must also come great responsibility". The responsible use of superhuman powers requires a superhuman talent of character and a comprehensive interdisciplinary knowledge of all the possible complex interactions that arise from their use. As we are reminded daily in the news of the maturity of people with worldly power, it is very reassuring to know that such talents are not to be expected in people we meet in the course of our lives.
