“A little water is a sea to an ant - Afghan Proverb”
Some Facts about our "dried" planet covered mainly with water but {ironically} called Earth:
- Over 345 million people without water access in Africa
- 780 million people lack access to an improved water source; approximately one in nine people.
- An American taking a five-minute shower uses more water than the average person in a developing country slum uses for an entire day.
- Over 2.5X more people lack water than live in the United States
- Lack of access to clean water and sanitation kills children at a rate equivalent of a jumbo jet crashing every four hours

"The word Buddha is a title for the first awakened being in an era. In most Buddhist traditions, Siddhartha Gautama is regarded as the Supreme Buddha (P. sammāsambuddha, S. samyaksaṃbuddha) of our age, "Buddha" meaning "awakened one" or "the enlightened one." [note 2] Gautama Buddha may also be referred to as Śākyamuni (Sanskrit: शाक्यमुनि "Sage of the Śākyas")."

Side story: This camera has an interesting history. It belonged to my father. He passed away almost 40 years ago (I was 5 month Old). When I was a teenager I found this camera when I was going through some old boxes. At the time I thought that this was a cool camera, but had no idea how nice or valuable it is. This Leica M3 is one of my most valuable possessions for so many reasons. It is also one of my favorites subject to shoot. Loving sharing it with all of you that appreciates photography as much as I do.

Love, even if momentarily and transient can be extremely transformational. A lot of the world issues could be solved with just a little love and lot of understanding.
