Do you ever wonder that why do we often keep staring at flowing water! Or even wonder that why do we love to listen to the tune of flowing or dripping water! Every time when a friend or children playing with water throw some sprinkles towards you and soon as the water touches your body you feel pleasant, do you ever ponder why do you feel luckier.

It reminds me a famous saying ‘no one dies without love but without water’. Now you know that staring at flowing or dripping water reveals that life runs smooth with water and those sprinkles give the feeling of being alive. It is of the essence to drag the huge factor of water into the current panic situation, created by coronavirus, as everyone is consuming water more than ever now a days.

Staying home and washing hands over and again are pretty good and lives saving acts these days but it is evident that when people wash their hands they let the water keep running out of taps for longer.

An individual may wash his hands at least 15 to 25 times a day and if one keeps the tap open for at least 3 to 5 minutes every time then you can imagine that for how long one lets water to run out of tap and how much quantity of water is wasted. This act of consuming water in a huge quantity may cause water crisis.Corona may not harm humanity this much as water crisis may do.

Water is life and building of life cannot stand sans water. Let’s stay home, wash hands but also save water by inventing simple methods of washing hands. Use of intelligent taps, bath jugs or someone to turn on and off water tap for one may help to save water in this situation. The Frontier Post cares for you so stay home, wash your hands and also save water.
