H2O

I'm a huge fan of water.
It may seem silly, but water is my favorite drink.
I like the way it tastes (or doesn't taste, technically)
and the way it quenches my thirst.
In fact, it's the only thing that quenches my thirst
on a hot summer day.
It's also something I take for granted.
It literally takes me 22 seconds (I timed it)
to walk to my refrigerator 
and get a tall, cool glass of ice water.


Not everyone in the world has that luxury.
In underdeveloped parts of the world
there are actually people who walk for miles
in the hopes of getting water for their families.

Just a little something to think about 
next time your'e chugging a glass of H2O.
