One thing that I was thinking about when I was in the bathtub on Sunday, was how much waste of water it is to take one bath. I know people who takes a bath almost every day. Every day! That’s a lot of water. I googled and it says that on average a full bathtub requires 75 gallon of water (of course it depends of the size and if you fill it all the way up). A regular shower uses 10-50 (depending on for how long your shower is). Five minutes and 10 gallons seems a lot better for our world then 75 gallon to sit in your own filth for 30 minutes.
I have never been big on taking showers, therefor not been interested in taking baths. Splashing around in the ocean is fine to me, but I hate to shower. It’s something I have to do, but if it was possible, I would never shower:) It’s boring, takes time and my hair never dries. It goes back to especially high school when I showered after gym class, after dance class in school and after dance class or teaching at night. Plus this was years when we all cared about how we looked so I showered in the morning as well. It could easily be 3-4 showers a day, unless I wanted to walk around stinky, which I eventually did in college because I was so sick of it. 1-2 showers a day is still too much but better than 3-4.
Anyway. I kept thinking how stupid this bath was while I was in the bathtub. Like I said, I know people who takes a bath at least a few times a week. And at the same time there are people on our beautiful planet who can’t even drink one glass of water per day. Ok, we can look at it that way when it comes to basically anything. “I hate to do home work for school” – some kids don’t even get access to education. “My stomach is too full, I’m gonna throw away the rest” – there are people who starve to death. And so on.

I have nothing else to say. So, bye.
