hear no evil - see no evil - speak no evil

Hearing, seeing, talking - if you have to give up just one of these, which one will it be?
i'm having a hard time starting this post only because i can't imagine anyone being able to make a very good choice here... i mean, more like an honest choice or rather any choice at all.
personally i fear losing my eyesight and vision. not being able to speak would be pretty horrible too, but i can always learn to type even faster. when i was a kid i used to eat carrots every day. probably more than i should because i learned that the vitamins aid in eye sight. i figured i didn't want to go blind so i ate a lot of carrots. my mom thought it was because i was emulating bugs bunny.
i'm glad she never caught me prentending to have no arms, or legs. i would also pretend i was blind. i'd wake up and not open my eyes and start my day. take a shower, shampoo, condition, wash, dry off and make my way back to my room. i'd choose my clothes, socks, pants, shirt...eyes closed. when i'd open my eyes i'd be wearing different color socks, the wrong shoes or mismatched outfits.
i did, however, learn to pour tea in a cup. but i would spill a little. sometimes i cheated, but i figured i was only cheating myself because i would invevitably go blind. i also would inevitably lose one or all of my limbs and would practice dragging myself from the bedroom to the living room. or get dressed with one arm.
i suppose that if i lost any of my senses i'd actually be pretty well prepared. the only thing i'm not prepared to lose is an organ that i can't live without....or like.... my head. Man...that would suck ass.
