Its about taking things for granted

Why do I scream for joy?
Because I have a voice to scream with.

Why do I skip instead of walk?
Because I have legs to skip with.

Why do I smile at people?
Because I have a mouth to smile with.

Why do I give people hugs?
Because I have arms to outstretch.

Why do I go to school?
Because I have the opportunity too.

Why do I have food on the table every night?
Because I have food to put there.

Why do I live?
Because I can and the people who can’t, can’t.
