If you had to choose to not having one of the five senses which would you pick? For me I would pick smell. Sight I value for the beauty I see around me. Nature and my children. Hearing, I love music and can't imagine life without it. I value the sound of my children laughing, and there little voices. Touch, I can't imagine life without touch. Life without feeling a hug from your child. A caress by your husband. Taste, I love to eat, it would suck if you couldn't taste. Could you imagine not being able to taste fresh baked bread, or cookies, or pizza, a cheeseburger? So for me it would be smell without a doubt. I do value smells but I believe I could live without them if I had to. So which would you pick?

I would pick smell, same as you. Although, I would miss smelling my favorite flowers, it's better than losing the other senses. I love to listen to music, read and write and do crafts. Actually, maybe if I got rid of taste I wouldn't eat as much. What do you think? If that's the case, take away my taste.

lol, too funny, I guess not having taste would probably be good for dieting!

I would choose smell as well. My allergies are really bad, so I can't smell most of the time anyway. But, smell does play a roll in eating and how tasty a dish is because you are smelling it and tasting it at the same it. I do so many different creative things, that it would be hard to cope with not being able to see to do them.
