The more I think about this question the emptier my mind gets. Even thinking about the person in the link who can't smell and didn't know it for 14 years, to me the fact that she didn't know it suggests to me that smelling isn't a universal human experience. We all experience things differently, and not smelling is just a variation on that. One person watches a football game with excitement while another prefers the excitement of running a marathon. To me, the only thing we can apply universally to all of us is that nothing is universal. I think there are common human experiences, but the human mind is so complex that lacking some of those experiences makes us no less human. And I think that's a good thing.What other universally human experiences might I be missing out on?
