That's a great superpower, Sewg. Like Norman Vincent Peale said, "Imagination is the true magic carpet".

 I think that on the whole, my super power is to be able to tell when a person genuinely wants help solving a problem.... or just wants to vent.

I have to admit that it took me awhile to develop this 'power'. LOLOL

 I took dance classes in high school and college. I would love to be able to fly across a room like I used to.

I think that's a wonderful and really useful skill, Rocket. The ability and willingness to let someone vent is a real gift to the person who needs to talk.

Especially these days with tensions flaring that's a great skill to have Maudie. I bet you're always the calm, cool, and collected one in the room!

I understand, Starwomyn, that things can change over time. I've lost some of the agility that I once had, so now when I plan my line dance syllabus I take into consideration that my students (who are mostly my age) and I would be better off with dances that are easy on the joints. Fortunately, for people like you and I who enjoy dance there are lots of different ways to get/stay involved ... water aerobics, chair Zumba, etc. And now due to the pandemic many of these classes are online and some are even free!

 I would like to think it is being genuinely interested in what people have to say. You learn so much when you hear other opinions. As an author, hopefully it would be giving pleasure to my readers.

You're an author, Elaine? That's cool! And yes I agree about learning by listening to others' opinions.

I've been told I am a good empathic listener.

btw, thank you for being the only person creating a new post, using the Valentine's Scavenger Hunt bling.

If I remember correctly, Koffla, the jobs you have held are perfect for a good empathic listener such as yourself. Sounds like you found just the right occupation! Thank you for the scavenger hunt idea. I enjoyed working on it because I learned a new skill - how to use bling.

 Pearls I had to think about what superpowers I have. I wasn't really aware of me having any. I always thought I was a good listener and empathetic. I've never taught dancing or any other activity. Being able to teach someone or something is not something I would gravitate to.

Tx, I remember that you have a good ear for music and how to interpret it when dancing. That's a superpower .. not everyone can do that successfully!

Shartaun, your listening skills and empathy are gifts to everyone you interact with. They definitely qualify as superpowers!
