One of the basic things a human needs is water. There is no human that can go a day without water and water isn’t only for drinking but for washing, cleaning and doing other things. And that’s why some people say that you can’t be enemies with water because there is no way you can go without it in a day.
What is water?
In my definition and also from what I was thought then in high school, water is a liquid component which is odorless and tasteless and can be used for drinking, washing, cooking, cleaning and every other thing that water may be used for. There is no way you won’t take your bath in a day or maybe do something that water has to be involved in a day and that’s why water is one of the most useful things of nature that God has provided us with.
Also, water is very popular in every part of the world and there is no part of the world in which water is not known or not used.
How clean is my water?
Well, this may be a tough question and a simple one at the same time. As I said earlier, water is tasteless, colorless and odorless and when I drink my water, I usually don’t have a kind of taste whatsoever or see any kind of color inside of it. And o don’t fall sick either having malaria or typhoid due to dirty water. I don’t fall sick so I can say to some extent that I have access to a very clean water.
Tips to make water clean
Firstly, I don’t really believe that there are tips that can make water clean. I don’t think it is possible to clean something which is already clean and the most thing someone can do is making sure that the water he or she consumes is kept in a very clean place or container. At the same time, the well water in my compound is very clean and drinkable so what I do is boil the water in a very big pot and pour it in my drinking container. I always make sure that I wash the container well and making sure that there are low chances of germs inside it and then I pour it in and drink water anytime I like.
Unfortunately, there are some people who do not have access to clean water especially some people living in the northern part of Nigeria or those living on the islands of Lagos. The best thing to do is going for water treatment and there are many ways to go about that. Some of the ways in which water can be treated is by boiling, chlorination, filtration, disinfection and so much more. They are quite cheaper so it is advisable to go for what’s best for you.
I’m glad I’ve got access to clean water and also unlimited water. Water keeps us healthy but the most important thing is making sure that the water we trust is very healthy.
