Your answer may five but this is not correct. Can you think of other senses besides or in conjunction with taste, hearing, sight, touch, and smell? This will be an awakening discussion that just may change your thought process and enrich your life.

We can sense need in others when it is necessary to help, and we can sense remorse, when it is necessary to forgive.
Is love a sense? It's more than a feeling, it's a sensation we can feel in the heart and in the brain, not just in the physical sense. What about the love of our parents and for our children, the love between friends, and the love of life?
We can sense fear and we can know what it is safe. We can sense when something is wrong and feel what is the right thing to do.
We can have a sense of responsibility and can sense achievement.
Are these the sort of things you had in mind?

Thank you for that comment. You mention some I had not thought of, and I do agree with what you say about love.
As for those who don't seem to understand the concept of right and wrong:
Common sense in one view is the most uncommon sense. While it is extremely rare in possession, the recognition of it is universal. All men feel it, though few men have it.
