Senses

To believe that us as humans only have taste, smell, touch, sight, and hearing to interpret and analyze the world that surrounds us is bologna.  Haven't you ever wondered why it is that when you "think" someone is
following you, you can almost feel their vision burning into the back of your neck?  Or when you walk into a house and you can "feel" the energy, whether it be positive or negative, of the atmosphere within the shelter of the home?

Meow.

Not only do I think our thoughts on senses are limited, but our perception of time is manipulative.  Peter Hancock conducted research in the University of Central Florida, Orlando concerning our perception of time.  He believed that time changed for us during times of extreme stress (warfare, driving accidents, ect...) but was very conflicting with the idea of an "ideal experimental environmental", seeing that completely eliminating external effects on the psychology of one for a "clean slate" to study is impossible to achieve.  Although no conclusions could come on how long or how time is distorted, Hancock did have evidence that people said time was distorted under the stress given, but was limited again due to the fact that putting the subjects under extreme stress could be unethical.

Who needs ethics anyway?

Ghosts and ghouls have always been a night time story to tell our kids so that they go to bed and wake up with a good circadian rhythm, but the idea arises: are the dead real?  I previously talked about my thoughts on a certain "energy" a person can leave since the first law of energy is "Energy cannot be created or destroyed".  Once someone dies, who says that their energy is destroyed?  Perhaps it stays around where said person went through many hard times in their lives, and maybe that energy can be seen or felt through other senses.  The idea of another world within our own has always fascinated me, because reality can sometimes get boring.

So I guess the question is "What else is there to our senses"?  There will always be supernatural explanations to our unusual senses like an existing astral plane or ghosts, and then there's those moments where time seems to freeze but we will never grasp an understanding of it due to our ethics.  If we wish to understand what else is in our head, perhaps it will take more time and better ways to research.  All I ask is that you keep an open mind with things like this, and always stay thinking.
