Picking up extremely heavy things like buildings and airplanes. I figure that if I could pick up literally anything on earth, that would earn me some degree of fame and maybe special attention from the ladies.

I dunno... I'm already decently good at the things I need to be decently good at. If I were really good at something, it would be wasted - there's no market in my area for anything I would want to be really good at.

I guess I'll pass. Small town y'know.

Computer programming (something if I would put the work into I could be decently good at)
Flying (not airplanes more like being able to swim through the air quickly and freely at will)
Building common ground with people
Marksmanship

probably some other stuff too, how about instantly acquiring skills matrixlike when I need them?

I guess I'd like to be a super good craftsman. Skilled in all manner of work in stone and in wood, like the man King Solomon chose for work on his temple. Now I can't remember his name.... hang on. ...... Huram-abi - Chronicles 2:13

I really wish I'd never stopped piano lessons. I'd love to be good at that. I'd also love to be good at remembering things, like Bible verses and important dates.

I wish I knew how to play piano! Remembering Bible verses would be a great skill to have too. :)

If I could be good at something it would be fighting age. When I find myself wishing. It is never I wish I was a pilot or wish I could draw. No my wishes are, I wish I could load the wheel barrow with as much dirt as I could a few years ago and still be able to move it. So I would wanna be good at fighting age.

Probably the ability to sing well. I am terrible at singing I just keep quiet or hum.

There are other things too but I'll have to think about it.

Music. Just musical things in general. Singing, instruments, production and all of that.

Ooooh, that was featured in a game I once played. They had "neuromods" that you could use to inject any skill into your brain - piano playing, ballet dancing, you name it.

I'd probably go for amazing pianist over great surgeon.

Im not too fond of carving up bodies! Bro is a surgeon, and I dont really like it when he shows me pics of body parts from the inside. eek

The only thing with being an amazing pianist though, is, you might get a crick in your neck and sore knees from practising all the time at the piano. I dont know if the fame and fortune makes up for it. Then if you have a sister whos an amazing drummer and singer, she'll steal the limelight.

Just thinking of the Carpenters. However, your amazing compositions will live on forever.

I wish I could hear the Lord clearly and without questioning or doubt.
