Importance of Water in Our Life

 The importance of water simply indicates the importance of oxygen in breathing. No water means no life. Water is synonymous with life. Water is a symbol of patience and sacrifice.

You often go through the example when your grandmother used to say that we are calm like water. The explanation of water is beyond the imagination and beyond the words. Sometimes it is calm and peaceful like an ocean sometimes it shows its anger toward us when we go against nature, in the form of heavy rain, flood, and drought.

The human body is considered to make up of five basic elements i.e. Earth, Sky, Fire, Air, and Water. Among these elements, water is the most important element because most of the body contains water. Even though our planet ‘Earth’ also contains only 30% of the land, all the other parts is having water.

The importance of water in our life could be understood by the following example more deeply and easily:

Once a child asked his mother “I’m thirsty, where is water?”

“It is in the glass,” mother replied.

“Where is glass?”

It is on the table.

“Where is the table?”

It is in the room.

“Where is the room?”

It is in the home.

“Where is home?”

It is in the village.

“Where is the village?”

It is in the block.

“Where is the block?”

It is in the area.

“Where is the area?”

It is in the state.

“Where is the state?”

It is in the country.

“Where is a country?”

It is in the world.

“Where is the world?”

The world is on earth.

“Where is the earth?”

It is in the water.

“And where is the water?”

It is in the glass, my son, Mother smiled.

This is what the Importance of water on earth is and what is the role of water in human life! Water may not have its own shape. It acquires any of the shapes where it is kept but water is in us & we are in it. Now to know the importance of water in our daily life, first of all, we must know what water actually is!

Water is a composition of 2 hydrogen atoms with one atom of oxygen having a covalent bond. H2O is the chemical formula of water. Generally, we know that we live only due to oxygen taking and that oxygen is present in water, so water is life. It is the foundation of life.

Water is from Home 2 Office (H2O), and Water is from Hill 2 Ocean, which means everywhere. That is why water is essential for life. We all are familiar with the uses of water in daily life as drinking, cleaning, agriculture, industries etc. All three forms of water are important to us i.e. solid (ice), liquid (water), and gaseous (in the form of steam).

Now, what is the importance of drinking water? For drinking we must use clean water otherwise it will affect us completely opposite & this elixir of life can become poison. The importance of clean water is directly applicable to our health. There are a lot of water benefits. Now how water is important to the human body?

The benefits of water in our body are:

• Water acts as a solvent for our bodies. It helps in the digestion of food.

We all must save water. We all know the importance of the atmosphere & water is the most important part of it. There are a lot of water conservation methods.

Some water savings methods are:
