¶ … sight and hearing I rely only on the sense of touch, the sense of taste and my sense of smell. I cannot see food but I smell and taste it better than anyone else may be able to. I have nothing to distract me from the taste, as I eat I am immersed by the food. There are no sounds to distract me and nothing to look at to distract me. As I eat I can smell the food completely, taste the food completely and feel the texture of the food inside my mouth completely. I have an appreciation of food that nobody with sight or hearing could ever understand.
My sense of touch and my sense of smell are also far more acute than anyone else's. While many people probably do not even notice smells, I do. I do not need to walk through a perfume store to appreciate smell, I appreciate smell everywhere. I know when someone new has entered the room because I smell them. I know I am walking past certain type of trees because I smell them. And when I smell these flowers or trees or herbs they are more to me than just smells. They bring...
Emotions I doubt anyone else would notice like I do. These smells alter my mood in seconds and I can imagine I am somewhere else. While some people do this to relax on occasion, this happens to me all the time. I am always being transported to different times and places and emotions by different smells. I don't just remember times gone by, these smells really make me feel like I have travelled somewhere.
I cannot see and I cannot hear so for all I know I may have travelled. I can place myself anywhere in an instant and there is nothing to make me not accept this reality as real. I can experience it as if I was there again.
I also know touch better than any seeing, hearing person. I touch things and notice textures that nobody else would. My hands are the part of me that sees the world. I touch peoples faces and I see what they look like. I touch objects and see what they look like. My whole body has a sense of touch. I feel the wind and the sun against me, I feel…
Similarly, the sense of sight would allow us to see animals that we were hunting, giving us a great advantage. The human sense of sight is somewhat unique in the animal kingdom. As humans, we have effective full-color central vision that allows us to accurately perceive information in our immediate environment (Vision1to1). While sense of sight maybe our most important sense when looked at in isolation, human perception is best when
In the same way, if one were to intentionally color the inside of a piece of apple a dark brown color, a color that is generally associated with rotten apples, then one would not taste it. In essence, this means that at times, one sense would effectively overwhelm the others, so that eventually, this sense would overtake the others. (Fields, 2004) In this particular case of the brown apple, the
Phoneme, Phonics, And Sightwords as They Relate to Reading Acquisition In Orangeburg Consolidated School District Three, there is a failure to meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) goals, mostly in the content area of ELA on the state mandated test. Unfortunately, that failure is not unique to that particular school district. There are many school districts across the country that fail to meet AYP. Because of that, programs including SIPPS and Dibels
For example, the individual has developed a serviceable way to tie his or her shoes they therefore do not need to learn alternative ways to do so. Yet, when the individual is faced with a broken finger he or she must learn a new way to do the task, and in doing so they change a pathway that was previously set. Now because recovery is imminent they are likely
The connection between the physical world and the metaphysical world was a topic that has fascinated humans for hundreds of years. Aristotle suggested the soul was the seat of psychic activities. He also felt that activities in the physical world first have to occur in the spiritual world (Elders, 2006). This connection is the basis of modern metaphysics and the ideals that are embodied in the psychic's work. Many, such
This can occur without any human intervention. Therefore the issue of permanence becomes incomprehensible to man, regardless of science and logic (or perhaps because of it). As such, we cannot legitimately claim that any object or form is "real" because in order to be truly real, it was have to be explicable. Thus in Phaedrus, Socrates asserts: "I must dare to speak the truth, when truth is my theme. There
