Chapter 6 Blog (I know, late... oops)

I accidentally forgot to do a reflections blog on this chapter... oops.

Some things I found really interesting was the complexity of our senses.  There is so much going on in our bodies in order for us to be able to do what we do.  For instance, for something so small, the eye has so much going on.  It is much more than I would ever be able to understand.  With that said, I found that the sense of touch was the most interesting.  I mean, people have adapted to be able to live without eyesight or hearing, but touch is harder to adapt to.  It is so important for us to be able to feel what is going on around us.  Even as I sit here and type, I realize that it wouldn't be possible if it weren't for the fact that my fingers are feeling each and every key so that I hit the right one at the right time.  I never knew this before, but touch is divided up into four different parts.  I never realized how much there really is to it.
