EEM(Embedded Event Manager) example ..automatically reenable an interface

Embedded Event Manager(EEM) is a scripting language in cisco devices that will allow you to automate some actions inside the devices.
In this example I'm trying to enable an interface that has been shutdown for some reasons.
