Corpus is a "you never miss your water till your well runs dry" kind of saint. I was sitting on a stoop worrying about a mischievous body part - and then I started thinking about everyone I knew with some sort of physical problem - ankles, backs, eyes, knees, prostates and immune systems, etc. In spite of the body’s general reliability and its spellbinding ability to provide transportation, sensory experience, sexual pleasure and more - we only focus on what's wrong - taking all the body's miraculous working parts for granted.
