\"Water<\/a>

Water flowing into a cup<\/p><\/div>\n

Drinking water is something we often take for granted.\u00a0 Did you ever stop to think about how some people don’t even know what vessel they should use to drink water?\u00a0 This is something we should explore.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Imagine you are sitting around and decide that you want to get a glass of water.\u00a0 Now imagine you didn’t know what a glass was and only knew you wanted water.\u00a0 Sadly, this is the very same way tens of people in the world feel every day.\u00a0 Believe it or not, there are places in the world where people have never even heard of a cup. Instead, they have to be resourceful and use whatever is around them to take the place of a cup.\u00a0 Fortunately, there is something built into our bodies that can be used in place of a cup:\u00a0 our hands.\u00a0 By putting one’s hands together and shaping them in such a way as to effectively hold water (cupping them), it is possible to gather and contain fluid in one’s hands for enough time for said liquid to reach the mouth.<\/p>\n

While it is not nearly as nice to use your hands in place of a cup when drinking water, it is acceptable and gets the job done.\u00a0 With that said, it is a good thing that we have all taken the time to remember those in the world that can’t drink water as conveniently as the rest of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
