How is water perceived in this world?
After exploring many different sites and readings, just in the community that I go to school in, and a wonderful teacher of mine that is fully aware of the environmental issues that humans are creating, helped me perceive water in the world differently. Water is perceived in many different ways around the world by different people. In third world countries it’s a fight for water daily for many people in Sudan whereas if you were in America you could just turn on the tap and have access to clean drinking water whenever you want. I learned a lot from the book, A long walk to water, by Linda Sue Park. In Sudan water is a scares and dangerous resource if its not consumed properly. Unfortunately Salva heard good news that his father was alive, but very ill. His cousin, states, “Years of drinking contaminated water had left Mawien Dut's entire digestive system riddled with guinea worms (106).” In American we don’t have this problem, people don’t respect the value water, they figure it is an unlimited resource. Water revolves around life. Salva was more fortunate because he his father was very successful man. He owned man head of cattle and worked as the village judge. w
Nya was a young girl about the age of 11 who walked for 2 hours to collect water from a muddy pond, and 2 hours back again to her village. She would stop for lunch, and walk back to the pond again. Every day Nya walked 8 hours to get water for her family.
Nya didn’t really have a choice to, because her sister was sick. Nya could see the question in her mother's face every morning: Would they be lucky again…(34).” I PERCIEVE WATER DIFFENTLY AFTER carry TWO FIVE GALLON GAS CONTAINERS FULL OF WATER, I CAN JUST IMAGINE carrying IT ON MY HEAD FOR A SECOND, yet alone we walked 1 percent of what shes walks every day complaining how we didn’t want to carry the limited resource. Water is necessary for human survival.
