Composition

We, as humans, have 5 senses: sigh, smell, hearing, touch and taste, all of these senses are very important in the life of each other of us, now, we have not to survive, but before, we have to develop those senses to survive.

Now, the human being have already developed another skills that, somehow, supply the senses.

But even so, we need the senses to live good, for example, we can't know how it feels to touch a cat, or an elephant, without the taste, we wouldn't know how our favorite food taste, we definitely need them. Also, we associate smells, flavors or feelings with specific situations that our senses saves.

But, if I had to choose one to eliminate... It's a hard decision, but I would eliminate the taste, not is because I want it, actually, I consider, eat, as the better pleasure of the life, it's because I think if I eliminate that, my life won't change so much, only I can't know how the food taste, but it's ok for me, not is like if I eliminate the hearing sense, I will be as a deaf, and f love so much the music and all the sounds.
