Hello my dear Steemians,
Today I wanted to write for this contest that is running by @senehasa, here is the link if you are also interested:
I never thought about water before, for me it was something normal when I open the tap in the morning and water comes. I can drink, brush my teeth and take a shower. I also can water my plants, wash my house and flush the toilet. Living in Europe we have enough rainy days and there is enough water. I remember my mother always saying me to turn off water when I brush teeth and not just let it run and maybe better to use a glass filled with water and rinse the mouth when necessary.
Of course, when we are children we do not take our parents seriously and think we know it better and think parents want just annoy us and show that we are still children.
That is why when I started University I was glad to move away from my parent and to be able to make my own decision what to do and how. That is a great feeling.
After my first year my student mate invited me for summer to visit his home country and that usually very hot in summer. The family of my friend lived in remote area and it was far away from nearest city that is why it was like adventure and I happily agreed. Of course, my mother told me to be careful and make sure that I have enough water and hydrate myself. Of course, I promised that and we went ourselves on the way.
When we arrived to my friends house it was hot +35C and there were not many trees I immediately felt it because without wind and even in shadow it was too hot. The evenings were better and slightly cooler and it was great time for walking around.
One morning my friend wanted to show my outskirts and we packed few stuff but not many as we were planning to return, we took only 2L of water and some snacks. My friend drove a car it was a Range Rover and not really new, but was looking reliable.
The trip was great and after one hour the car had to stop and the engine was overheated. We had to stop and within a half an hour our water was gone, our bottles were empty. My friend was trying to fix a car but nothing worked, so that we decided to walk it was about 1 hour away.
During this short time I felt how it is to be exposed to sun and without any water. Our body was sweating in order to cool down our body and prevent a heat stroke. But we were very thirsty and I noticed that I was just dreaming about water.
We saw how animals and birds were drinking from some water puddles on ground and I had a moment when I was ready to do so too but I knew that this is not healthy.
After short time there was a car on horizon that was approaching us and luckily it was driving in our direction, when it stopped next to us, the driver had some cool water and even that simple water was the best and precious gift for me. I think I would be able to pay all the money that I have for a sip of water. Only hten we can realise how important water for our body.
