>>98456I love my sternum! It is the bone closest to my heart and also its line of defense! The sternum connects my twenty ribs to my spine, which have four more, and they form the rib cage, to protect my organs and help me walk. Its my custom-made inner armor that has grown with me since the beginning! When i caress them with my hands and feel each rib, a sensation that resembles waves, and i follow them all until they connect to my sternum, right in the middle, it fills me with gratitude.
