Elements Part 3: Water

We cannot do without water, But it could do without us If we choose! Bodies of living things are made up of mostly water, squashy plants, Blood and Lymph included too. Without Hydration, the skin as well as Internal organs would become very dry. Dry organs cannot function and Would definitely malfunction! Even tears and saliva would be diminished, Forming crusts instead of lubricating! Drink lots of fluids, for fluid loss is a continuous thing- As we breathe, sweat, in kidney- filtering, Water is indeed a Requisite for life and living; Mucus dilution during the Common Cold. Normal electrolytes depend upon it. Potassium, Sodium, Magnesium when dry, crystalizes and heart and Brain problems we do get. Water is also seen in Crystallization, In the form of ice, snow,or on cold surfaces. It crystalizes on those unfortunately frost-bitten ones, In the frozen, hard unrelenting cold caregivers take care of! It Precipitates in Seas, Oceans, Rivers, Lakes and Streams; Where "hot air rises" as a mist to the clouds, Making them heavy to "fall" as rain. Animals, Humans and Vegetation welcome it. Water is a great "body-guard" for being Impermeable, Oil and water never mix and fat is separated too. Water helps form blood and lymph after we eat, Flowing to flush out our accumulated mess. We are Invigorated with life, as cells hydrate Durig a long trek on a path at camp. Water invigorates the life-source due to exhaustion, Even the Lord cried out "I thrist." Water "minds its own business: Quenching the thirst of animals, Irrigating lands as it passes by, Filling reservoirs for domestic use. Choose to make use of it daily!
