There's a natural blind spot in the center of your vision .... your brain just automatically fills it in

You also are only able to see full focused vision in only about ten to 20 percent of the centre of your vision and the edges of your actual sight are all messed up .... your brain just automatically focuses on the immediate ten, 20 percent and pretends that you have full focus and vision everywhere else ... every time you move your eye, it's fully focused on the centre but the edges are not.

Your breathe has a natural odor from the inside of your lungs ... your brain just ignores it

Your mouth has its own taste and scent that is probably unpleasant ... but your brain lives with it

If you go into an extremely silent room ... you will hear a tiny ringing in the background, that's tinnitus, most people have it to some degree but your brain automatically tunes it out

Your brain is very good at ignoring many things over a lifetime.

On top of that, your body consists almost of fifty percent actual human cells and fifty percent of natural bacteria that are essential to your biology. Half of you is actually you, the other half is organisms that are not you.

Fun fact - if you partially deafen yourself with cap guns at a very early age, you grow up thinking tinnitus is normal, and don't discover until you're 14 that eeeeeeeeeeeeee all day and night isn't normal and it's really not a problem and you can sleep well cos it doesn't bother you

Thankfully, the younger you get tinnitus, the easier it is to ignore. Unless someone mentions it, I don’t notice.
