WATER IS LIFE
At the heart of Waterspirit is a spirituality that connects nature, especially water, with the sacred. Water, as sustainer of all life, is a sign of the presence of the holy moving through and nurturing all beings. As a great connector, Earth's water flows through the planet in a cycle that unites all of life. As has been said, "My tears today may be your cup of tea tomorrow."
