The Blessing of Water

Water's the lifeblood of mankind; without it, 
there would be no planet, no food of any 
kind. Water was the last invention from 
the creator mind. The Earth came first, 
then mankind came later. 

Water's the most precious gift of all, from the 
universe. Water is the fluid like blood 
that runs through God's veins. Without it, the entire 
idea of Earth and life would be insane. 

Everything living comes from it; it keeps giving and 
never quits. From the clouds, it falls down for all of 
us, even when we are full of greed and lust. Water 
makes the reason for life and the reason to live-- 
a reason to love and a reason to give. 

We take it all for granted. If the rain were supposed 
to stop, it would be the end of life on Earth, dammit. 
We should protect it, and it should be appreciated. Without 
it, man's world would be terminated. 

Water is like love: it is given to all--clean water for one 
should be clean water for all. To allow it to be pooped in 
and tainted by human behavior will only spell out doomsday 
from the creator. 

It's a blessing that comes from God's own mind. 
It should be cared for and loved in time. One day, salty water 
will be all that fills Earth. Tell me, then, what would diamonds, 
money, silver, and gold be worth?
