{events} i am a citizen of the planet…

This is the title of one of my favorite Alanis Morissette songs but as I wrote previously, it is very appropriate for today.

It is the day that the U.N. designates as the day to remind us that much of the world still faces a global water, sanitation and hygiene crisis.

This is probably something that we never think about as we sit in our homes or even when we are out and have access to fresh water whenever we want.

I for one know that there are times when i am not conscious of my water consumption. I have a bad habit of turning the water on in the bathroom, dropping my towel in the sink and walking out.

So I appreciate this day, where water and how truly precious it is is brought to the forefront, it reminds me to be aware and so grateful and motivates me to try to do my part to help those who don’t have water pouring from their faucet on command.
