As a kid, I drank water from the tap or garden hose.
No Evian water. No highly filtered water. Just tapwater.
And if my family didn’t put the toilet lid down after each use, my dog would slurp water from the porcelain bowl.
All of us survived just fine.
These days, some waters contain arsenic, nitrates, and other highly toxic chemicals.
So I drink filtered water. Maybe even a bottle of Smart Water from time to time.
As for my plants, I feed them filtered water.
Scientists say because of its scarcity, clean drinking water is more precious than gold.
When it’s our time to go, I hope my loved ones and I are well hydrated and death has plenty of drinking water available.
I hope that whatever dog I have, when it’s his time to go, he has the good sense to know he can drink from his own bowl and not the toilet.
Speaking of which, are there even any toilets in heaven?
