    When a human is born their senses start to develop from day one, and as they grow they begin to rely on every sense to understand and accept the world that they have been brought into. Through the small aspects of what they see, hear, feel, smell, and taste they learn the basics of the world. Every sense has its advantages and disadvantages, and each is special in its own way.
