What would you do …
… if you would be all-powerful? I’m talking of limitless power like the one the Beyonder wields. Real omnipotence. Currently, I’m re-reading Secret Wars II and I couldn’t help but to think of what I’d do with that kinda power. And guess what! I couldn’t think of anything at all. Well, sure, there are some things I’d do but, ultimately, there’s nothing more to do. If you can do literally everything in the blink of an eye, what do you get out of life? You’ll never experience fulfillment again because you don’t have to strain to accomplish whatever task you set yourself to (yeah, in this context limiting your powers is cheating).
Seriously, could anyone be happy wielding such imaginable powers? Are we humans even able to understand the magnitude of omnipotence? Which leads us inevitably back to the initial question: what would you do if you would wield omnipotent powers? End wars? Stop death? Force others to embrace love and life? Honestly, I truly don’t know what I would do. Every action has consequences and I would really feel like a child in a sandbox. You know, messing around with stuff and unintentionally destroying things in the process …
