humankind destruction - litter, forests plowed down by machines, poverty, homeless people, waste,

humankind sounds - children playing, a beautiful song on the radio, a band playing, fireworks, the sound of bullets, children crying, people in pain pleading for relief

SMELL-
natures smell - a field of flowers, a newborn baby, a fire, the air after a rainstorm, cinnamon
humankind smells- scented candles, a turkey cooking in the oven, a soft perfume, garbage, manmade dumps!. people with no place to clean themselves!.

TOUCH -
nature's touch - the softness of a feather, the sharp spikes of a cactus, the thorns on a rose, a soft furry cat
Humankind touch - the touch of a mother to a child, making love, running beach sand through your fingers, the pain of a bullet, the beatiing of a woman from a man, a helpless child being physically violated

TASTE -
nature's tastes - an apple picked from a tree in the fall, the sweetness of strawberries, catching freshly fallen snow on your tongue

the world is a ball !.!.only its not made of silk like a Japanese temari !.!.!. its made of love and hate ,black and white ,romantic and selfish,deep and shallow,hot and cold,bullets and roses,high and low ,bright and dark,close and far, yin and yang ,man and woman,you and me!.!.!.lots of contradictions in this world the one could feel with 6 senses ,if you only use five ,you wont feel a thing !Www@QuestionHome@Com

The world as I know it is made of turmoil and carnage!. Savages beating one another, albeit with a smile, they still do it!. An unknown to some a well known to others!. the world is made of feelings touched by every and all with a different feel!. Not one is alike, yet they seek the same thing!. The world is made of a taste!. The taste of lust, wealth, and greed!. While the bottom dwellers dip their hads in happiness!. The world is made of blurred vision!. Things moving so fast not one eye is cast solely on one thing!. Two eyes taking in millions of visions a day!. A brain overflowing with thoughts and ideas!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The question is so limiting!. My eyes only see a fraction of the wavelengths of light that are available!. My ears only hear certain frequency ranges!. My nose only smells a segment of scents that could be discerned!.

Limiting ourselves to what our senses can perceive is far too limiting for me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It is made of energy!. Behind everything that can be sensed there is something that moves, and motion does not occur without energy!. It is that motion that gives you something to sense, without it you would be in a void!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

all the universe is made of the same basic thing, energy!. that's why you cannot destroy or make energy, only transform it!.

our senses create the illusion that this is not so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
