Water
Water one of the most vital natural resources for all life on Earth. The availability and quality of water always have played an important part in determining not only where people can live, but also their quality of life. Even though there always has been plenty of fresh water on Earth, water has not always been available when and where it is needed, nor is it always of suitable quality for all uses. Water must be considered as a finite resource that has limits and boundaries to its availability and suitability for use.

Have you ever asked yourself why are you here?
Have you ever asked yourself why are you here?
And why you are just one more in the millions of the people in this world?, well I had.
In my whole life I have just trying to find an answer for this questions I mean like well okay there are famous people that really have something to do in this world but.... What about the rest of us, we are just there for decoration or what?, I had had a lot of theories but none of them realistic. Here is the theory that I think that maybe it can be true and the one I'm forced to believe. Is that each one of us is the most important but we are just in a kind of dream, but that when we woke up was when you died, but when we woke up maybe just maybe it was because we were in a dream... Again so maybe it is not true. I'm going to tell you a real story about this theory. Life is a dream.
Once upon a time there was a little girl called Nessie, she was 3 years old, she loved reading, her friends, her family and candies, she had long blonde hair, green eyes, and a beautiful smile. She studied at Timoteo's kindergarden. She had a lot of friends, but then she entered to school and say good-bye to kindergarden and her friends.
She entered at a school named Harrington; she met a lot of people such as the other friends she met at kindergarden. She was so popular and was very kind to everyone, people love her, her best friends were Rosalie, Bella and Alice, she didn't care of been popular or not, and she liked to be nice to the other people who were not popular as her, it didn't mind if they were good or bad, ugly or beautiful as her, dumb or smart, she didn't care about, she was the nicest girl in the whole world, but she didn't fell complete she felt that there was something that it was missing for her to complete her happy life, off course she was so proud of herself because she was the best in her grade, she was nice and people and teachers loved her, but in her life she just felt like one more of the rest of the people, so she decided that she had to be not one more but yes another apart the rest, not special, because she didn't felt she was more than anyone, but she wanted to be recognize, not by the other people but to be recognize and to know what was she doing in this world. So she started to think in what thing did she wanted to be recognized so she started thinking, and the first thing she though was to be the most intelligent girl, but not on her school but in the whole world, but then she realized that been smart was not the only thing in life, the personality was another fact, but maybe she was not going to be recognize of been the more gentle girl in the world so she reject that possibilities, so she spent more than seven months thinking and thinking what should she do to be recognized, she though even to practice extreme sports but she though that was stupid, she was desesperated and anyone could understand what was happening to Nessie, so they started investigating about her plans, but they couldn't understand and couldn't find what was happening to her so they decide they had to talk to her, so the day they were going to talk to Nessie she didn't go to the school, so that afternoon they decide they were going to visit her...... Later that afternoon.
Ring!
-Who is it? - Asked Nessie's mother. -It's Rosalie, Bella and Alice Mrs. King
-Oh! what a good surprise, you don't know what a good time you had decide to come you know? Nessie has been really weird all this days, do you know what is going on?
-Well we have come here to find out that actually Mrs. King, well all these days she is like distracted and all the time she try to avoid people. Trying to avoid us.
-Maybe the only thing I can do is to let you enter and to tell you "good luck"-Said Mrs. King sadly.
They went up stairs at Nessie's room, and anything was the same, before all that crazy thing her room was full of recognitions and all the awards that she had won before, but now it was full of plans and maps, they couldn't understand anything, but the were just looking at the room style, so they couldn't notice Nessie wasn't there, until a map called their attention, it was place, it had a forest, a lake, and then a big hole... They didn't understand it, but then they did, they remembered Nessie saying something about a dark hole to an other world, a world were you are never forgotten, a world she found, but they though she was just playing so they didn't pay attention, so they started looking, and into her closet they found a big gate. it was fool of stars, planets, galaxies, and even of faces, happy faces. They decided that the answer could maybe be there, but all of them where afraid to enter, to enter to an unknown world, to a place they have never been before, but of one thing they were sure, they had to save Nessie, so Bella was the first on who entered, the next one was Alice, and the last one was Rosalie. When they entered to that world they couldn’t believe it, they were expecting something like “Alice In Wonderland”, and they were kind of right, there was like all that fantasy that Alice has, but it had different things, it wasn’t at day, it was about 10:30 P.M, everything they could just thing was like voices into their heads, was like to listen people thinking’s, they knew it because there were phrases that definitely in her world didn’t said out loud, because they were afraid of what people could said, but there were not thinking’s, there were people who talked, and all of them were awake, at that time, was like if it was 3:00 P.M, they were all energetic, happy, and very awake. People were talking about other people, about their self. In that moment Rosalie understood everything, they were not only in a totally wonderland, but they were in heaven, and that people were not talking about their friends of life, no they were talking about their death friends, Rosalie told them what did she understand, they had already pass through the forest, the lake, and they were into the hole, they decided that their priority was finding Nessie. They tried asking people but they didn’t answer. So they started looking by they own. Suddenly they saw her long blonde hair, and hey went running.
- We were looking for you, what had happen to you? – Asked Alice.
- I’ve just found this beautiful place, and I decided that I want to stay here forever –Said Nessie.
- No you must come back, your mother is getting worried about you, she wants you to come back, to come back to be that happy girl you always were, and we also want that – Said Bella.
- I came here for not been forgotten never, and I don’t want that to change, so I’m going to stay her – Said Nessie.
- We are not going to let you be forgotten and you must now that
After that the explain her that she didn’t had to worry about anything, an Nessie decided to come back home with her friends, she came back, but she has never forgotten that amazing world where she went. And anyone is going to know were that gate is, not even Nessie, she grew up as any other girl, but she was special, she was not only smart and a good person, but she was also a very happy person, she had her friends, her family, and that memory, a memory that made her live much happier, a memory that could change dreams, realities, and even lives. Nessie is now 37 and she has 3 beautiful kids, her husband is 38 years old and his name is Jacob, and now they life very happy, she never comments anything about the world that she went, but there is a certain thing, a sure one, Rosalie, Bella and Alice were wrong, that place wasn’t heaven, that place was like a T.V room, were you can see your other life, the life you are going to have when you die.
Or when you wake up from your dream, she saw a really good thing, and was that not all the people in the world remembered her, but some people, people who met her or knew something about her remember her, and those people keeps her memory, that people recognize her because the kind of person she was.
That’s the theory I’m forced to believe in, because is the one that reflects what kind of people you have to be, not in the way that you have to know another weird world to now how other people are going to remind you, but to know yourself, to know what kind of person you want to be and what kind of person do you want people to remind you.
