Mystery of the magical sense of touch

November 2: Senses: Touch or Feeling

The best sense of touch; Having mother’s hand touch on forehead”

Mother!

I long for your warm hugs

For your loving hand touching my face

It’s been too long since I felt your love

Through your loving embrace, your gentle touch

Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it all over before he’s born and long he learns to use sight, hearing or taste. And no human ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short on pocket money but long on hugs”

This is such a beautiful truth. We need to be touched with care and love by those who are close to us. A hug can say what many kind words cannot. A child cocooned in a mother’s womb learns of the love expressed through touch.

We take our sense of touch for granted, but it is as important as sight, hearing or any of the other human senses”

When we care, we touch

When we’re concerned, we touch

We express our emotions through our touch

Such a vital part of our communication

Is the sense of touch that conveys

Our feeling without the need for words!

  1. Beautiful thoughts about touch, Sadje. You have such a way with words. I love your quotes, too. This is my favorite, “Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it all over before he’s born and long he learns to use sight, hearing or taste. And no human ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short on pocket money but long on hugs” I hadn’t thought of the sense of touch predating birth, but it does.

  2. When I first started teaching it was OK to touch/hug students… but now if you touch a student in any way it can be taken the wrong way. So sad that society has bent to the direction of being bullied out of being able to hug.

    I always embrace my children and grands when I see them and when we part.
