If you had to live without one of your senses, which would you choose?

This is a tough one. I guess I really do take my senses for granted. But if you really want to take one away I think it would be sight. There is a pretty good reason for this actually. Don't get me wrong, it would suck to be blind. But that didn't stop Dare Devil didn't it. (btw both movies sucked) I just value my other senses a bit higher.

Anyone who knows me at all knows that food is a huge part of my life. Not only do I enjoy pretty much any type of dining, I'm also known for my cooking. In fact, I used to cater for my friends' parties. So with that, taste and smell is a no go.

Music is another thing that plays a huge part of my life. I had been a pretty good pianist and a soloist in the chior prior to college, and I do have a pretty sizeable collection of CDs. If you ever look to the sidebar of my blog, then you would see that I have gotten to the point where I am compiling a list of songs I like. You would also notice that it is very diverse. So asking me what genre of music I like is meaningless. Although I am currently on my singer-song writer stage right now. I will definately need my hearing.

Touch is probably the most important sense of all. There are some practical and obvious reasons to keep this, but those are not my reasons. There had been a few times in my life when a simple touch sent a shiver down my spine. There were just instances of just one touch, one kiss that made the whole world around me melt away. Sometimes I feel those are the moments I live for. Just to find that perfect moment, the one touch, the one kiss. It's one of the little things that is worth living for.

So yeah, that would leave my sight... and since I'm practically blind without my glasses or contacts on, I kinda know how it feels already. It sucks, but it's the least important out of the process of elimination. So there... I hope this satisfies ^_^
