The Amazing Spiderman

July 6, 2012

For as long as I can remember people have had to debate of what could be done with a single wish. One wish and all the difference on earth could be made. Some might wish for world peace and others might wish for money beyond their wildest imaginations. Imagine this though, instead of bathing in money and buying the house of your dreams, you spend your days and nights spinning webs as you dive through skyscrapers. The walls of New York welcome you as artistically perfected webs are spun to create your own personal Tarzan adventure. Imagine if instead of wishing for selfish riches and money, that instead you spent that same wish on something that could change lives.  With a single granted wish you could spend your nights as a masked vigilante protecting the streets from crime while millions of adoring fans praise your name. The most beautiful girl in your life would sit at home and do anything for you, including risking her own life against the relentless villains who use her as bait. Yes as of today July 6^th my one wish, pending it is granted, would be to live every day as Spiderman. Having been inspired by the recent film “The Amazing Spiderman,” I am now thoroughly convinced that a life as Spiderman would be extremely difficult but most certainly worthwhile. The thrill of being blessed with the abilities to stop crime would be out of this universe. I have thought over and over again to myself of anything that could replace this and I can find none. Being Spiderman himself would be a dream come to life in a magical fashion. Like hitting a brick wall I have come full circle and realized that this dream will spend its days as a mere hope and splendor of thought. However, if for some reason Aladdin wants to lend me his genie, I will ready to fight crime.
