A Single Drop of Water

Life today seems to be ever-changing. Things constantly shifting. Society changes constantly. Values, ethics, and even interpretations of history. Heroes are portrayed as villains. Scoundrels are represented as virtuous. In some cases, even the truly evil is twisted to embody good. Big cities shrink, small ones grow. Technology, so-called “settled” science transforms.I’ve got a little story that gives a precious perspective on this seemingly unstable world we live in. Let’s consider this tale from the perspective of our protagonist, a single drop of water.Ice, vapor, liquid – it’s all water.Mixed in a solution or by itself – water is still water.Part of a deadly flood, or used to clean a wound – water is still water.No matter how we find it, how we describe it, the value we give it, or the truth - or the lies we say about it – water is still water.
