Okay… I know
that I don’t really blog such kind of things and this would be my first attempt
but this was the topic given to me at the Just-A-Minute competition conducted
at my college during our annual fest this year. First of all, I take this big
platform to thank Hemanshu Joshi… who not only convinced me to take part but is
a very nice person to know and a wonderful secretary. I am glad that the
committee came to you and Arun, of course, who is equally a gem! Thank you
guys! :)
Now….
If I were to lose all my five senses, but one, I would
choose to keep my eye sight. Quite honestly, I feel my eyes are really pretty
and I would never want to lose them. Furthermore,
"All
things bright and Beautiful
All
creatures great and small
All things
wise and wonderful…
The good
Lord made them all!"
The God has created a wonderful and beautiful world
for us. I don't want to lose my eyes and miss any part of this mystical
creation of the Lords'. I also plan to donate my eyes after I leave, so someone
else could have my pretty eyes and also see this wonderful world.
Moving ahead… I may not be able to touch someone but I
can see them in front of me. I guess that is sufficient. I already know the
fire would burn me, I can see a fire and judge that. I don't need to burn
myself each time.
I may not be able to talk to you but you can always
write to me and if I can see, I can read what you want to tell me. Also, I
might not be able to talk to you but I can write back (but hey, speaking is not
in the five senses, is it?) and then you can read what I want to say to you.
I may not be able to hear your voice and figure out
how you feel but I can always see you smile or frown and act accordingly. Voice
can be manipulated but your expressions cannot be.
I may not be able to taste something and tell how it
is but I can see the colour and have a fairly good idea of how it would be
tasting. I can see the look on the face of someone smelling it and figure out
if they like it… I can see how you look when you taste it and know if you like
it or not.
Now, I don't say
that the other senses are replaceable… It is just a simple perspective, which
btw, won me the first position. So just thought I would share!!
