Water and well

A metaphor i thought of lately

Water in a well is sweat and unique for people drinking it. But all wells need cleaning periodically. If water stagnates too much in a well, then even it becomes undrinkable. Shrewd are those who periodically check the quality of their own wells and do the necessary steps to clean it. If the one taking care of the well is not capable of cleaning it because of any reason, then others who drink from the well must take necessary actions to ensure the quality of water.
No matter how long you use the water from your well, it is insane to think that water comes only in your well. There are others with their own wells. Water is there in their wells also, even though the tastes of the water may be different.
Also, though you may have accustomed to drink water from your well, there is no rule out there that says that water in other wells are unhealthy for you. In fact, try to taste other waters before you decide on the quality of your well. Who knows, may be when you drink water from other wells, you may be able to find out deficiencies in your own well.
The underlying part is, Drink well and take care of what you drink. Do whatever it takes to ensure you are drinking the right thing at the right time.
