I never really appreciate sound until I can no longer feel it. Not being able to feel sound is more physically painful than the most painful sounds in the world...sometimes I'd rather not be alive than not be able to feel sound. I think if I ever went deaf, I might kill myself...though not as quickly as I would if I went blind. I live vicariously through my eyes. If ever I can no longer see, I will also die through them.
