The sixth sense.

An individual is blessed with 5 common senses, as we all know: Sight Hearing Taste Touch Smell Apart from that there is another sense.yeay yeay the sixth sense..usually ignored by common people or rather shunned! There is a term in Neurology which is called as "Proprioception"which in crude terms means how one can sense the external environment and make decisions based on those stimuli! It is generally employed to determine how you can keep your body under control and to keep a check on each part of the body. This is no sermon on science or anything but to get to my topic. I have been tempted to write bout it based on numerous incidences in my life. I know I lack in common sense but I guess God has found a way to compensate that by providing me with the sixth sense which is stronger than any other sense I use to judge. Some have called it as "intuition" some have even called it "psychic" Oh whatever it is called. For me its my 'Judgmenet tool" I am no god to know everything before hand. But, I am blessed coz I have this ability that has helped me from making decisions that I would otherwise make. I know, all the other 5 senses of mine have guided me wrong many times. Sometimes "What you see is not what is the truth' "What you hear is not always right" 'Tastes can be masked' "Some touches can be misguiding' "Smells can be misleading' But, you have to make a decision somewhere. You dont want to not give it a fair shot. Your senses are no more capable of making the decision that seems right. At that time, I resort to my "gut feeling" I know, if at any point of time when nothing seems to be working, there are thousands of conflicts and numerous doubts. But, if there is this 'inner voice" that tells me to do something, I usually never ignore that. Your brain and your heart sometimes, do not act in concert. Atleast mine doesnt. I somehow feel despite numerous conflicts my intuitions never guide me wrong. They are like my "guiding lights" who reflect the path where I want to walk. Sometimes, this very ability makes me do the most unexpected and connects me with people who are close to me. On n number of times, it has happened...when I have dropped of that much needed email to a friend who wanted to hear from me, or make that fone call just when someone needed me' In real life: These gut feelings help me to extend that hand of friendship to someone and made me talk to that person in the first instance. You just know. Who is right for you and who isn't. Sayesha refers to this as "view from atop her ghoda" [view from atop her horse]. Maybe its a guessing game. Guessing about people and the vibes that they give you. It can be wrong, no doubt about it. It can make you commmit mistakes. But, it even helps you assume responsibility for your actions. It might be regarded as totally nonsensical. For whatever reason, it helps me predict few things for myself and whats more, I trust myself to make those decisions. Right or wrong I don't know but decisions that are right at that instant. If something doesn't seem right (or seems little off) it probably was never right to start off with.
