As time goes on, more and more people are using a lot of water and the resources becoming scarce. There should be remedies to the shortage or impending shortage of potable water. One is planting of trees, but in some areas, there are no more vacant lots to plant on, mostly were cemented. So the government should enforce tree planting in available areas and prevent illegal cutting of trees.

Water management should be efficient, and people should abide by the laws on water usage. It is best if they will recycle water.

Here in the city where we live, people buys the water they drink. That’s because they want to make sure that the water they drink are safe and clean.

They have water on their faucets but they aren’t sure if they are potable. Maybe we can but we have to boil them first before we drink them and that’s tedious.

And that is the situation in the city where I work and also in the next town where we live.

But not in the hometown where my parents live. There, you can get water straight from the faucet and drink without getting sick. It is safe to drink and clean. It is also so forceful. They can open two faucets at the same time at the sink yet they both have lots of forceful water.

That’s because the source of their water is from a spring that is being gathered in a cemented big container with a lid. This is always regularly cleaned and checked as to its cleanliness.

As to trees, our hometown have lots of them compared to the cities which like you said because of urbanization the trees were all nowhere to be found already. Although, it’s a good thing now, that the mayor have already implemented the cleaning of the ditches so flood now is just in one place or two but not in the city proper anymore.

Thanks for the feedback. Last year in the summer months it was a very bad situation in our country in many of the states. They had to start water trains to supply water to the places where there was sever water shortage. These people also had to subsist on one pot of water for one to two weeks in many places. It was so bad that at some of the places people started fighting for water. It was a desperate situation.

Governments do not seem to want to act against the people who are the trouble makers as they have to go to them every five years to seek votes and win elections. That is the reason they allow these problem to happen and sit and watch as the situation unfolds. In the end they panic when people get angry and do some patch up work to see that that particular year is done with. Then everything is forgotton conveniently till problem crops up the next year again.

water water is all what people need to start a life, its like magic and some people do not appreciate it, really uo feel bad when you see that, its like treature, wel all need to take care good about not to finish.
it is enough to say that more htan half weight the human is water, be careful with using it all of you

here in my country there is a problem with water. In all honesty i believe now they have somewhat gotten control of its usage. in the past communities would have been without water for months sometimes years. In my house in the past we went through the period where there would have been periodic lock offs of water. we had to juggle our work, school and collecting and storing water for our usage. it was really a stressful time for us as there were moments when we had to rush home so we could collect water before it was shut off. thank God we managed and pulled through without any major health issues.

recently in late november last year the second city receive 4 months of rainfall in one day according to the experts. the pictures and videos of the catastrophe was disheartening. today they are still cleaning up that area.

You are right, there is so much food wasted. If carefully managed, many people will not go hungry and prices of food commodities will go down. This requires efficient post-harvest facilities along with the right technology for the farmers. Biological control of pests like rats should be undertaken. Aside from cats or snakes that feed on rats, farmers should find its breeding places and eradicate them manually. For left-over foods in restaurants, there should be really a local law asking the management to donate to charity or to soup kitchens the left-over but still in good condition food.

It is sharing and proper management that can help solve food wastage.

I agree.

Thanks for your comment appreciate your participation.

Life indeed is so uncertain; we do not know what will happen tomorrow or in the future. Like what you discussed here, having an insurance is a best step to cushion the impact of such unfortunate incidents. It is better to be prepared when we need it like having a health insurance plan.

The picture alone can tell man cannot live to the fullest if hunger strikes and if live anywhere as a homeless man.He will never have in mind to live to the fullest,LOL. His mind is full of problems where to sleep the next evening and even day to take a short nap they need help by the President .

Living Life to the fullest, for life is too short….I do agree on this particular statement, to a certain extinct. My reason for saying this is because we all make choices in life. Some choices are bad and some choices that we make, are good choices. We are not perfect, so we will eventually fall short sometimes. Being realistic, the decisions that we make in life, on a daily basis, causes us to set ourselves on a path, to either good or bad! It is up to oneself, on which path you will decide to take. What I have learned, is that life is very important! I believe that, the more good choices, the better your life will become. The poor choices that are made throughout one’s life, would determine the outcome of the life that you live.
In order to live life to the fullest is to keep making good decisions. In my opinion, life is short because of what you make of it. Sometimes, we are put in places or around certain people, to be tested. Being tested towards the decisions that are made. If you choose to go down the wrong path because of the choices that you make in your life, always know that it is never someone else’s fault, it is your fault…the person who is making that choice. Our life can be saved from the wrong choices that we make, therefore if someone offers you a good piece of wisdom, take it! If you are a person that accepts negative and positive criticism, this will be a good deed to have.
The value of accepting positive and negative criticism is to understand the fact that we are not all perfect and we do not know everything. There are people who been on this earth, longer than you, who is gifted to still be living . In my opinion, I feel that their life expectancy is long because of the choices that they made throughout their life, making their life a meaning or a purpose!
So I am going to choose to live life to the fullest! I am talking it into existence for my life! Be careful of the decision making in your life and be mindful of the toes that you step on
in the process. When people are good to you, that is very special to have in your life. There are many people who are not fortunate enough to have a second chance, so every choice that you make should count for something positive in your life!

@Detra Abbass, Hi? Thank you for your nice contribution about the idea on this blog if necessary to live to the fullest and you are right. It really depends on the situation like those sickly people, they have to enjoy life despite disabilities for the more that they can help themselves if feeling depressed due to sickness.Life is too short , it is felt by those who already reached the 70’s and so on and so forth.

I stand to say that Honesty is truly the best policy. Its a must for children, I have made sure that I inculcate it in my children. In fact, as communicants, my children know best not to tell a lie. As a couple, I come clean in everything I do, I honestly do not know how to tell a lie, because I will get caught. My hands are always clean is a saying foe telling the truth. Lies will always catch up with you. A friend of mine once lied about her age, in fact when she got her visa, she was so excited, she sent the visa page to me, and voila, the real age appeared. All this while I thought I was older, but it turns out she is older by two years. As I speak right now, the previous year she claimed she would be 40 has suddenly reduced, I guess age is no longer on her side. The truth I must say will always set you free, so its best to always, come clean.

Joy E. Ojo, you are a great parent, a great model to your children, That must what parents must do to inculcate onto the minds of their children the value of honesty for they are young and their minds are not yet developed, They need good values to learn and nurture so when become big those learned will never depart from them ( John Locke). A child’s mind is like a blank sheet of paper, he or she must be be taught the right ways and good values of life. Thanks for your very nice and inspiring comment, very much appreciated.

It is important for Honesty.Being untruthful will only cause more lies that you would have to tell, to cover up the first lie. Some people are untruthful for many different reasons, in order to get or maintain certain perspectives of a thing.

In my opinion, Honesty is the key to build good communication and character with people. If people are familiar with you as a honest person, you are respected more. People are most likely going to accept your words of being truthful, on face value.

When you care about someone, it is very important to maintain honesty. In relationships, being truthful, is the key. Dishonesty will only cause pain for you and your significant other. When a lie is told, usually you have to remember the first lie that you told, in order for your lie to be believable. Eventually, your lies will end up, getting you caught up in losing the people that you care deeply about.

Everyday, there are a great number of people who are dishonest on a daily basis. Sometimes, people will label you as being fake, because you are considered to be untruthful and your word do not mean a thing. Therefore, in order for you to earn the proper respect, be honest. Lying gets you no where.

Having a conscience, should avoid untruthfulness to people who you care about. If you do not want people to be hurt because of your lie, then do not be dishonest. The lies that you tell, will definitely cause disruption in your relationship.

When you are in a relationship, trust is the main key. Trust, Communication and Honesty are the main tools to keep in your relationship. In order to keep the bond with your significant other, maintain being honest. Good piece of advice!

True, I have observed one thing about honesty. When one starts lying then one lie follows another and there is not end to the list of lies which a individual would have to take the help of to cover the first lie. It becomes a vicious cycle. It also takes a toll on the person who is doing this and the people with whom he has been doing this.

This trait of honesty is a very important one to be inculcated since childhood as if a child grows up without learning and appreciating this trait. Then even his children and the others with whom he comes in touch also get into a problem. It difficult to practice but not impossible to perfect. Thanks for the share.

Honesty is the best policy. Anywhere you go, whatever you do, if you are guided by honesty, nothing would go wrong. An honest person is liked by many; no lies could twist his principles, his words are trustworthy, even his actions. He is credible.

Krishna Kumat, Thank you friend for dropping by and sharing your nice words about this bog. You are right honesty is the best policy. Children should be taught on this so they won;t cheat someday.

Sorry friend for the error of your name hehehehe, maybe my eyeglasses were so dimmed,lol. Thanks for your very appreciative thoughts and feelings of this post.Thank you so much. Have a nice Sunday.

@Detra Abbass , thanks , very well said, yes honesty can bring a better communication and wholesome trust in a family, group, peer. work place. Honesty is a great virtue that is brought and carried through generation to generation. A society would be in a critical situation if composed of fake members or people.

It is not true that we can not fake honesty, lots of double faces do have fake honesty and that show how bad they are and good in what they do, honesty is hard to find in our world and that is sick really, but maybe in the old days the honesty was hard to fake it, but now, it is so easy to fake for some people and so easy to fool good people since good people like to see the good in other people, but let me tell you that this fake honesty can not last, they will be seen for whome they areally are and also they will get falling so badly for the fake honesty and fake personality too, that is interesting topic and the generation did make difference in the honest the older the generation the more honesty the world was, so let us be aware of those fake people since it is critical life to live if some one with dishonesty fake his honesty to you, then you are under their mercy and your life, your house and all is under their games

@tress, I appreciate much your own views about honesty, very well said, yes though bothers can fake honesty, but it won’t last. No one ever had triumphed a lie the same way as there is no secret that can be kept for years.Thank you.
