I was busy shopping today. And where there is shopping there are restaurants nearby. As I walked out of one store, the smell of Chinese food almost knocked me over. "Oh man! That SMELLS good!" My immediate response was, "I could really eat some of that!" but then I thought...
It IS possible to simply enjoy the way something smells and not have to experiences it with our other senses. It smells good. Period. That is enough.
And so later, when I walked into the bakery department of the grocery store I took a huge whiff and said, "THAT smells good." And I didn't even consider what it might be like to taste it. It was enough to appreciate the smell.
I shall have to introduce you to my favorite Hot Chocolate candles. Smelling them is enough to make me happy. No regrets later. ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I have, a feeling this thought will come in handy. I'm a sensory kind o girl. Thats partly why I love food. But enjoying smells may equally be as fun! Can't wait to try! :)
