I would actually like to retract what I said earlier. While I do still wish I had the powers I described earlier I now think it is better that such abilities (and endless others besides) are little more than fanciful conjectures. I cannot know how such powers would change who I am and while it might be outing myself as a bit of a coward I do not like the idea that power could change who I am. I have a hard time trusting myself as I am now and controlling powers beyond one natural endowements strikes me as putting far too much unstable power in the hands of those (humanity in general) who have proven far too easily corrupted and beguiled by their own vanity. I will not say I am content because I want to continue become a better person (physically, mentally, spiritually, and so on) but I will rmake due with what nature, circumstances, and effort/hard work have and will produce. Ultimately that is perhaps the only wise (and perhaps only actual) decision one can make. Afterall wishing for something one can never, will never, should never have is not only distracting oneself for becoming someone worthy of such power it is also diverting energies one could devote towards becoming that better person towards wishing for powers that would essentially be oneself becoming a higher tier or level of being without the effort (and thus the fulfillment) of getting there through patience, consistent, and sustained effort, persistence, and intelligence.
