That would depend on which kind of power you asking about. a base definition is a controlling force that propels motion.

Power is when you control, person, place or thing.
The power of electricity
The power of manipulation.
The power of an engine
The power of money
The power of the President, tyrant, terrorism
The power of knowledge
The power of success
I can go on and on, if you are not satisfied with my answer, then I did not have the "Power" to get the best answer
Or if you want a more deeper answer just type in power in your search engine, and you look in the wikipedia web site.

There are 5 types of power on motherearth.
1. Mothernature's power - Not even the mighty governments have the power to stop it. - Earthquake, Tsunami etc.
2. Human's power - Rich & Famous's power, Governments' power & Career's power = Usually these powers are alway corrupted and dirty practise. LOL! Don't deny it!
3. God's power - for those who born with these power. = e.g. TV Heroes' power.
4. Darkside power - For those power where need god's father and other teachers to remove those darkside power. e.g. Devil, Satan, etc.
5. Supernatural power - Power that happens naturally, unexplainable. e.g. Witch's craft. Chinese Medium etc.
Remember the world fan's slogan of the Spiderman :"With great power comes with great responsiblilty." :)

Power is the ability to control, dominate, or destroy something or someone.
Absolute power is power with no recourse available to the people that fall under that power.
Example: The ability to kill someone is power.
The ability to kill someone and be assured that there can be no recourse against you because of it...is Absolute Power.
Every man in recorded history that had Absolute Power became utterly corrupt.

Power is just an ability or an art to distant your self from people having same amount of abilities but are not fortunate enough to know it for themselves like you do.. The distance as in the sense of control allows you to manipulate / regulate others ignorance.

according to me power is the highest form of influence.
it can be inherited...earned and even snatched.
but the influence never degrades.
the height of influence is so so so high that people lose their reasoning skills.
power can be a disease but power can be a blessing too.
and power is one of the most "mysterious" form of "trait" which can be quantified by material possessions.
otherwise there is always a scientific explanation. which i won't be able to provide because i don't like physics! :x
its not my subject :x

Power is the manipulation of resources to achieve personal gains. Take that one to the bank.
