The Sense of Smell

Luckily we have been blessed with 5 wonderful senses; touch, taste, sight, hearing and smell. No offense to the other 4 but the sense of smell is what has been catching my attention today. Smells are funny things. I like the smell of my Burberry perufume, my fabric softener, my shampoo and conditioner, the smell of a shoe store, fresh baked cookies, brownies, cakes, pizza, my house (in california), my second house (in farmington), the smell of rain, the smell of the flowers my mom got for Valentines day, mens cologne, lotion from bath and body works, vanilla-the kind you cook with, the smell of gasoline, sharpies, and the beach. I'd like to thank my sense of smell for allowing me to enjoy these smells often. Unfortunately my sense of smell is a double edged sword. My little nose hairs don't filter out the smell of gas (the kind that people give off), nail polish remover, my house (in provo), pickles, fish, smelly feet, body odor, public restrooms, and old lady's perfume from my life. I guess I can be grateful that my list of good smells is much longer then the list of bad smells that sometimes have to fill my nose.
