By Daphne Bowen


Human beings are gifted to be born with five senses. These are the sense of touch, smell, hear, and sight. If one suddenly fails, a person will definitely have a difficulty in doing all the things he or she would want to do. This is why we really need to take good care of the body parts that gave us these senses in order for us to maximize its use until we grow old.
