From the 5 proven senses which one do you value the most?
Ive spent most if my life with someone whom only has partial hearing in one ear. It got me thinking how hard it must be for some people and how like most people I probably dont appreciate them as much as I should.
i value sight over all other senses. i don't hear the best due to years of working around power tools but if i lost my vision, life would become almost meaningless.
Hello pat88, since going blind a couple of years ago I have become pretty dependant on my hearing.
Touch is also quite important, but no I don't read Braille.
