Seeing Doesn'T Feel Touch Taste Or Smell

When It comes to trying to explain or telling someone Apart from another person who was actually beside you themselves at that point in time About what that certain place you have been or seen was actually like Because even if a picture paints a 1000 pictures A video far more detail so Than even our own eye's can capture And you able to relay it down to the slightest minute detail The human eye can only see It can not feel or touch Taste or smell And word's alone cannot either Encapsulate a collective combination of them all together That can sufficiently capture what exactly that means to only you Only you memory yourself can remember Otherwise if you could wouldn't that make them less special and diminish there value If someone was able to tell you what it's like to stand in front of the 7 Wonders of the World Would we still feel the same need or desire to go and see it for ourselves Come to think of it would they even have been built at all If someone was able to adequately explain what love feels like Also knowing the pain of death , suffering loss is to follow and awaits us all Would we even still be here wish us born at all Maybe that's the reason why we as human beings feel the need To have to see things for ourselves in order to believe

You describe these four senses with a thought provoking approach and we all have our own perspectives and thoughts about each sense you have mentioned , why, because God is responsible for making each one of us unique. Some can smell and not see others can see but not feel and there are those that can taste and not smell or vice versa. Awesome write Christopher, hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

On a certain level I totally understand where your coming from, but my own life experience is that some places are over hyped, and may prove to be a disappointment, but emotions are different, when we possess empathy we can really feel other's heartbreak and loss, but I do think its all relative to the observer, some people feel nothing, others enjoy their lives vicariously, damn you ask tough questions, this is only an opinion not an answer, cheers David

Yes you are so right David We are after all individuals and based on that fact up to each to see and decide for themselves. There is no good taste or bad taste just individual taste
