Personal Narrative-Water

Without fresh water to drink, you experience an unimaginable thirst. The survivors in the water

The first appearance of rain is when the people of the house are supposed to be leaving for work, “The weather box on the front door sang quietly: “Rain, Rain, go away; rubbers, raincoats for today…””

Consequently,“Officials say at least 1,300 people have lost their water in and around East Porterville, nearly three hours’ drive north of Los Angeles, making the town’s residents some of the hardest hit victims of the three-year-old drought” (Source 2).“Sometimes,” she says, nodding towards her youngest child, “when she needs to go, I just take her outside” (Source 2). Countless people have lost water making it troublesome to even do daily tasks including whole towns. People don’t even want to waste their water

Raised near the Mississippi River, Tessa Anttila always had a great appreciation for water. Because of her native roots, she felt protective of the natural resource growing up. When she moved to the city as an adult, Anttila wondered how she could transfer her appreciation for water to an urban setting. That’s why she started looking for ways to get involve with local water issues and came across the MWMO.

Hi, I am Molly the water molecule. I am going to explain the journey I go through none stop. It changed every time by a little bit, but I am share to you my latest one.

The material significance of water is clear. Water is an essential part of human life. Whether it’s the water we ingest in order to maintain the strength and integrity of our bodily structure and functions, or the water in our oceans that preserve the fragile ecosystem of our planet and cover a majority of the Earth’s surface. We have learned to exploit water for our survival and our leisure, sometimes at great risk. However, water also has a psychological significance to humans. There is something about water that has always attracted humanity. It is evident from our literature that humanity has often felt drawn to the water. Some good examples of this are Tim Winton’s 2008 novel ‘Breath’ and ‘The Bloody Past, the Wandering Future’, written by Janette Turner Hospital as a part of her ‘Dislocation’ series in 1990.

Water, water everywhere: It’s dripping from the dying leaves and forming murky puddles on the waterlogged forest floor. The air is sharp and pungent, almost acrid. Bracken and dry twigs are relentlessly snapping at my ankles and droplets of water are running down my spine and collecting in my sodden shoes. It’s making the late September chill bite my skin like an icy fire. It’s consuming me, engulfing me. I don’t know how much longer I can last.

In today’s society the value of water is greatly underappreciated, this is probably due to the lack of education across the globe. We abuse water as if it is an infinite resource, while at the same time not individually being responsible for solutions to the waste of water. In this essay I will provide a summary of the chapter that was assigned to me. I will also discuss the chapter by focusing on its core argument, explaining how supporting arguments are constructed around the core argument, and describing what kinds of evidence are used to support these lines of argumentation. The chapter that I was assigned was chapter five, which was the topic of water.

Standing in the middle of the crowd, holding water jars in my hands, I turn my head to see the endless wave of people coming towards my way. With dry lips and desperation on their faces, they quickly join the crowd heading towards the water station. The crowd includes high school students, working adults, and elders. The goal was unanimous: make sure that fresh drinking water would be supplied in their household for this dry and extremely sunny day. This activity has become the most important routine of our daily lives the day after the water fountains dried up in the mountains of Southern California. Receiving clean drinking water from the water station became the most important daily activity, and getting in line before the crowd approaches

This advertisement for Denver Water shows a public bus bench that is clearly cut to only one seat, and they wrote, “ Use only what you need”. This advertisement was published in 2006, and the idea of the advertisement can easily understood because of its simplicity, and the fact that he used such a place and such an idea that people actually might have some problems with and that is when people use a public bench and take more that what they need just for their own convenience . The purpose of the advertisement is that people started wasting water on themselves, and while their wasting it there is less water for everyone else to use. The message is that people have to stop wasting the water and to start using water more wisely.

Water is a very important commodity to live. Some people say it’s a right, but others at as if it’s a privilege, and as a result, people lack it. The human body is about sixty percent water, but in what I have seen just in my twenty years of life, people do not drink merely enough of it. Instead, water has been replaced as a go-to drink by things like milk, coffee, pop, or energy drinks, but natural energy lies in water. With water we can be more energized, awake, and of course, hydrated, which all together collaborate to help us flourish, stay healthy, and live long. It’s most of the earth’s surface, too; water’s all around us, but we neglect it and deny its crucial place in our health and humanity.

One of the effects of water scarcity is the impact it has on a person’s way of life. Since water is limited, the only way for people to obtain it is to walk miles to neighboring villages to get it. This task is mainly done by women and children in India. The women would carry pots full of water over their heads while the children would carry water in plastic

Nothing bad could ever happen on such a beautiful day like today, or could it? It was a warm January day in small town Knoxville, Iowa. Usually the max temperature a day here reaches a bone chilling 33 degrees Fahrenheit, but on this particular day we got a sneak peak of spring with a temperature at 64 degrees with light showers throughout the day. These record-breaking temperatures had the ability to put a smile on anyone’s face, despite whether or not they cared for the rain. Now I always loved rain, the sound of it pitter-pattering down soothed me. The earthy smell of the wet ground wafted in from an open window in the classroom. I thought, “Today is perfect.”

Uses contain water of the park, water for livestock, indoor warming of the residences and water for irrigation intentions etc. Rainwater that has been amassed of the surfaces of houses, tents and innate institutions, or from specially coordinated spans of earth, might make an vital contribution to drinking water.( Anon, 2009 )
