Hmm, I wish I had the ability to take more chances in life. Take a little more risk.
I would refuse to give up my ability to make people laugh.

Jen, no fair, you stole mine! I've always wanted a great singing voice -- the kind that leaves people in total awe and adulation.
What talent wouldn't I give up? I play the piano and that's always been a source of great enjoyment, relaxation and comfort for me. I used to joke that music kept me sane, because it was such a great emotional outlet. Whenever I was upset or down, I'd sit down and play my heart out, and it always helped. Oddly enough, I've hardly played at all since I got sick last year. No idea what that's about. It's tiring and I just don't enjoy it right now. But I still wouldn't want to give it up.
Good questions, Jennie!

such good questions i think i would like to possess singing as well. as for my current power...i wouldn't give up my patience for anything in the world. it is because of my brother who is 22, mentally retarded and doesn't speak. he makes me a better person. Speaking of people with disabilities....anyone know of a siblings support group?? just thought i'd ask...

Definitely a great question. I really had to think about this.
I wish I possessed the ability to keep in touch with others. I'm horrible at communicating over any amount of distance, and if my friends aren't the ones to take the initiative to ask me out or give me a call I most likely won't end up talking to them for a while. I try to make the effort, I really do... but I usually end up failing.
I would refuse to give up my ability to see both sides of an issue. No matter what it is, I can almost always understand the value of both parties' points of view. It's kept me from becoming too opinionated and allows me to help others settle their disputes.

Hey bttrfly08 just wanted to say hi to a fellow Queensite (is that right?). I don't know of any support groups but I can ask around for you.

Good morning Jen:)
For the 1st Question: I wish that I could sing or dance. I like to sing-a-long to oldies, but not with a big crowd. Just in my car hee hee. Dancing would be nice, than I could dance with others. I'm horrible at both.
For Question 2: I like to cook. I'm not perfect but I enjoy it, and it helps that I like it so I can cook me healthy meals. I used to play the flute, and when I am better I am looking into playing the piano.
Great questions:-)

Had to think about the first part for quite a while before I could answer because I could only have magical powers to accomplish it but if I did have them it would be that everyone, everywhere could be healthy and happy. Since we couldn't pick something with magical powers it would have to be two things I always wanted to do since I was very young. Take tap dance and piano lessons.
The second part was the easiest to answer as I always want to be able to have empathy for people and be able to put myself in their shoes in order to know what they must be going through. Have always tried doing this and hope I have succeeded as I really feel for people and hate to see them suffer whether it's mental, physical, emotional etc.
