Do you go with common sense or sense? Acting according to your sense is different to that of common sense. People often think with common sense but their sense says something else. So what should be the correct action

Common sense is a basic ability to perceive, understand, and judge things. It is also the ability to think and behave in a reasonable way and to make good decisions. Sense is an ability to understand, recognize, value, or react to something, Sense has many shades of meaning, all involving understanding or becoming aware of something. In a simple explanation: Common sense is for the mind while sense is for our five basic senses. For me, its better to have the combination of the two. That is using our common sense after sensing something. The picture shows a man not using his common sense.

@earnnings .. Yes that's true. because it is our common sense that dictates or tells us what to do.

Excellent explanation, Cristy. Sense is indeed the awareness of the body and mind to their surroundings. What we do with the information is a decision left to our free will and ability to foresee the results of our decisions.

If more people used common sense the world would be better. Cristy @magallon explained so well the difference that there is nothing more to add.

Is sense acting based on instinct, just like using your senses to have a certain action or reaction to a stimuus; while common sense is acting based on what you think is logical.

I think that 'sense' from within supplementing common sense or logic and reasoning is called, "guts". Usually, following our guts complements our reasoning that produces results all the time. IMHO.
