an apology

Dear Spinal Cord,

I feel I owe you an apology. That was incredibly ungrateful of me to call you dumb. Thank you for the ability to breathe, wash my face, brush my teeth, shower, feed myself...to take each step, to open my car door, to scratch my eye, wave at a neighbor, push down the accelerator, to sit in a chair, type on a keyboard, to fix a bad hair day, use a telephone, to lift both hands above my head and scream HURRAY, to fasten my seat belt, play a CD, wipe away a tear, pump gas, read a book, pet Mitty...

and of course DANCE! : )



p.s. i think we're all in trouble if we're needing Madonna to change the world : )
