Health Sense

Post by Morning »

I don't know if this has ever been discussed, or how crazy it may sound, but does any of you (besides myself, that is) actually have a health sense, or percipience, in exactly and wholly exactly the meaning it has for everyone here?

Care to reiterate the question? I think I'm picking up what your dropping...but the last part of that sentence is confusing.

Perhaps this is simply me indulging my cynical nature, but I am skeptical of your claim. How do you know that you have percipience?

That will be a difficult--impossible--question to answer because that would require you to provide proof that you have the ability and you cannot provide proof if you aren't actually in our (collectively, not just my) presence. Perhaps you simply like the idea of having health sense so much that you have convinced yourself that you have it. Thinking that you have health sense isn't a bad thing, in and of itself, but what if you make decisions based on an ability you do not actually have?

If thinking that you have the ability makes you happy, though, don't let me rain on your parade--I won't ever tell you to stop believing it. Like I said, I am just an old cynic.

I have no problem detecting when my plants need fertilizer, or when I need to take my son to the doctor. Does that count? :P

I honestly don't think it's all that hard to tell the difference between healthy and sick. Or beautiful/ugly. I think Donaldson sold this world short when he had TC claim that all we have here is "scenery." If Earthpower and Healthsense make the Land worth fighting for, then doesn't that mean *this* world is worthless?

If the OP has the health-sense he/she claims he/she has, wouldn't he/she at least offer his/her avatar a cup of water?
