As soon as I
get up in the morning I brush my teeth and wash
my face with water. Then I drink a glass of
water. A little later I drink a hot cup of tea
made with water. After a while I go to the
washroom, use the toilet and flush it. I wash
myself too. Then I take a bath with warm water
mixed with cold water. I get ready for school.
My mother serves me rice and pulses cooked and
fish curry. Cooking needs water as well. The
fish is washed clean with water and the
vegetables are boiled in water. I carry a bottle
of water to school to drink when I am thirsty.
Whenever I use the school toilet I remember to
flush it with water to leave it clean for the
next user. When I return home again I take a
bath with water and freshen up myself. The whole
day I drink about four bottles of water. My
mother says it is good to drink water and keep
myself clean the whole day. During the festival
of Holi I play with colour mixed in water and
sometimes we fill small balloons with the
coloured water and throw at each other
playfully.
If I do not use water then how will I brush my
teeth and wash myself to remain clean. How will
I flush the toilet after use? What will I drink
when I am thirsty? My mother says soft drinks
are not good for health. How will my mother cook
food for us? How will I play with colours during
Holi if I do not use water?
Of course I need water the whole day, every day.
Water is very important to keep the surrounding
and myself clean. I have to use water. There is
no other alternative to water.
