To See What You Can See. Series

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on May 1, 2023

I think if I had to choose the most important sense amongst the 5 senses, I would choose sight. I love colour and unique objects in the environment. I am always looking to see something new or different. With our eyes we can discern so much about people. We can see what they are feeling, if ...read more
