Often lakes, oceans and rivers are referred to as a "bodies of water". Secondary streams or inlets
are often called "arms". We can easily see ourselves as the bodies of water. When objects are
thrown into the water reaction is shown as ripples just as we feel ripples when our tranquility is
disturbed. We see ourselves reflected in the water. Water refreshes and cleanses. It is used in
religion as the tool for baptism. Water can also drown us. The planet looks like a giant blue marble
from space making us aware that we are surrounded by water our life support.
