Touch

    Only when touched do we truly come to our senses. What are some of your fondest memories? Chances are, they were when you were touched in one way or another. Do you recall the soothing touch of your mother, brushing away your tears and kissing it better? Or the touch of your lover, gently caressing and passionately intimate? Or the touch of your child, hugging you tightly and saying I love you? Perhaps it was even the considerate touch of a stranger, taking care of you when you were most vulnerable? Not only is touch one of the five senses, it is the one we cannot do without.
