What is the point giving free water to neighbor kids or people walking their dogs? They, by definition, have homes within walking distance with their own unlimited water supply.
It’s a nice thing to do?
I suppose I don’t see it as a nice thing to do if it’s completely pointless. Not that I’m against it, I’m just a little confused by it.
It’s not pointless, they could walk back home, sure, but if they are going for a longer walk and are a couple of blocks away from home, that’s a couple of blocks closer they get water. Or if they are active and playing outside, giving them water would likely be much appreciated.
Water in disposable plastic bottles is wasteful, sure, and maybe you’d have a point saying it would be better to offer cups of water. Maybe there are other people, further away, that could use the water more, sure. But providing something to someone in an act of generosity and good will is nice.
Delivery drivers? They’re not “in walking distance”
You’ve never left the house and thought to yourself “man I wish I brought water?”
Honestly, I don’t think so. Unless I’m going somewhere where water will be unavailable for several hours, but then I’ll just stop and get some.
Have you spent much time in Arizona?
