Bodily Confinement

On the way home from the shopping mall today, I waited patiently for a man in a wheelchair to cross the walkway. I thought to myself, "I have to tell God about this." I mean, WTF is bodily confinement all about? Is this your way of showing these people how grateful they should be for the many good things in their life? And/or to make the rest of us appreciate our upright state?

I'm not sure either of these really work. In my case, I simply feel bad for immobile individuals and wish they could live in a world where they are free to walk or run at whatever pace they feel comfortable with at a given point in time. Unless you have a compelling reason for major physical ailments that last a lifetime, I would ask that you correct this blip when you design the new human race. Boy, am I thankful that I still have the ability to type messages to you!
