Someone very close to me has never blown his or her nose.
I cannot imagine this. Blowing my nose brings me great pleasure. It clears my nasal passages and helps me breathe easier. It is quite the delight.
There are times when I feel I absolutely must blow my nose.. If I can’t find a tissue, I get frantic. Just writing about it now makes me feel the need for a good blow.
I have discussed this with my friend. I have explained the benefits and sheer joy of a hearty olefactory cleansing. He or she would not be convinced.
It saddens me that such an amazing gift is going completely unnoticed.
To his or her credit, this person has a broad palate. He or she will try any food at least once. On many occasions, he or she has told me, “You don’t know what you’re missing.”
I imagine, we all have something that we are closed off to trying.
But why?
