The Ocean in the Drop

“In one drop of water are found all the secrets of all the oceans”
- Kahlil Gibran

While continents and governments everywhere brace up against the water crisis, our most dependable hope lies in individual action towards water conservation. As the ocean demonstrates, every drop counts, so let no soul feel too insignificant to make a difference . For while drops seem minuscule in comparison to the ocean, it is to drops that the ocean owes its might and its very existence. If each of us recognized and respected water as our most precious resource ever, we would mirror the ocean in all its forceful resilience. And we might just be able to placate the global water crisis, if not completely triumph over it. The solace of knowing that we did put up our most spirited fight as a civilization might even go a long way in uniting all 6.67 billion of us.

“We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.”
– Mother Teresa
