Water

Water is a blessing to humankind. We use it for drinking,
washing, irrigating etc...it cleanses, purifies and refreshes. In fact, we cannot really do without it ... rain water, sea water, bottled water, tap water etc... Personally, I am fascinated and enchanted by its beauty in ponds, lakes, seas, reservoirs, waves, fountains and waterfalls. I feel a sense of calmness, peace and tranquility.

However, though water is indispensible to our world, we also realise that water can also create much havoc and suffering too! For example, the recent storms/torrrential rains/floods have destroyed houses, plants and lives in different parts of the world! This Christmas, these people are housed in shelters and some are grieving over their tragic loss. Your thoughts?
