If you HAD to chose only one of the 5 senses to have for a week, which would it be? Hearing? touch? taste? smell? see? Only for a week you could only have one of these. Which would you chose?

I would choose sight. I would be scared to not be able to see. I think I would live without touching and tasting and smelling for a little while. Hearing would be a little more difficult.

that is true. But you can still comprehend a lot by seeing, like trying to read peoples mouths and reading, instead of hearing them. I think sight is very important.

I would have to say eye sight. I can't imagine not seeing my husband and my children. Hearing and touching would come in tie for second. Maybe if I didn't smell or taste, I could lose some weight! LOL

lol! I am with ya on that! =) I agree, I couldnt stand not seeing my kids, also, I know I'd be able to touch them and hear them again in a week, so It'd be alright. I would chose sight as well.

Definitely for me it would be sight. That is the most difficult and most horrific thing to lose and that is your sight, we rely heavily on our sight and could you imagine just being blind for one day, it doesn't bare thinking about, you could adapt to the others easier but sight is the most important of them all.

I do agree, Sight seems very important to me, and I think that would be my choice as well.

If it was only one I could have and was only for a week I would choose sight! At least I could see what the kids were up to and read a book easily, even surf on the net and chat on mylot! xxx

hi stacyv81 I would want to see, I think all the rest are just not as important as been able to see the beauty in life. There are some smells Id be quite happy too pass on and tastes. You can talk with you hands if you have too. I think for a week I would be happy too lose the other four.

I have to agree with everyone else I think and say sight. I definitely wouldn't want to lose that. Hearing is also pretty crucial...and it's almost a tough one between them. But if I absolutely had to choose one... or die, I'd pick sight.

I would choose hearing because I am really good at that and it is one of the best things about me. I prefer to have it anyday, no problem.

The obvious choice has to be be sense of being able to see as they say that a picture is more than a thousand words. But those pictures can be stored in the memory and we can recollect them at any time we choose. Have a nice day from Deeeky.

i would choose to see as everything would be really hard to manage without no sight
