It gives life, and with many cruel turns, it can take it away. Water. It’s the essence of life, and in its absence, it’s the essence of death. Once you leave the city, it’s not hard to find the heartbreak, the desperation, the fading hope and the surrender. Perhaps the unspoken victims are our native wildlife, as waterholes dry up, it’s time we also looked out for them. Source images taken in the Scenic Rim Council area.
