As much as our senses are very unique and a blessing from God to us ,we still make mistakes of ignoring them.That was the lifestyle of James a high school dropout who was very talented and loved by friends but never really had any around him...."you smell" Jane said a girl from the next street who happened to stand by his side while waiting to get something's from the store man.."No I don't" James replied "I'm blessed with this smell and I call it aroma".. "uhh?.. stinking aroma" "go have bath a deodorant or something.. fine boy like you smelling like a pen".
It didn't budge him as long as he was concerned this had nothing to do with his confidence,until this day he was about to go and get bread for his night tea ..James was fond of milk and chocolates and was grateful he could mix them with water and call them tea..
on his way a lady passed him and she had on a smell he had perceived something satisfying, comforting and relaxing,he turned and for no reason got a smile from the lady it was as if she could see where the surprise in his eyes came from.
