Water is of major importance to all living things; in some organisms up to 90% of their body weight is made up of H20. The earth and human heart that beats without pause is made up 70% water, yet somehow many of us are either brainwashed or take for granted how we treat our environment, greatly effecting the oceans, streams, lakes, reservoirs, the food chains that supply the millions of species on our planet that thrive. Without them, we lose an important ecology, which forces us to find ways to produce things more unnaturally, in many cases causing a slew of problems to our health, our ecosystems and the environment. We can all agree that water is a powerful force of nature, it's so simple, one drop can start the growth of new life, at the same time it can end it quickly. Two bodies morphing by way of the paints consistency, float, fading into the water upon a distant horizon. The painted light omitted from the sky, casts a strong neon-like red hue on their faces, ominous yet beautiful both at the same time. We are minuscule compared to natures entirety, but we have massive consequences to her fate. If you have ever experienced floating in the sea or a lake, you are quickly reminded of how important this substance is to our own lives, without sustaining its' complex purity, the oxygen we breathe is just superfluous. One drop can make a huge impact.
