Ephemera

Looking from above at the veins of the wetlands on the coast of Walvis Bay, Namibia, there is a striking power belonging to a complex ecosystem at work. As sure as one can look at their own wrist and see the veins underneath their skin quietly pumping away, one can follow the path this water takes through the wetlands, observing the rich biodiversity surrounding and benefiting from it. These wetlands are deemed ephemeral, due to their transient and fluctuating nature. They are naturally drying and replenishing, protecting and stabilizing. All the water on the planet that is here right now, is all that will ever be here. It is in the oceans, lakes, rivers, glaciers, in the air, in our bodies and our drinking water, circulating and recirculating. As the water flows through our veins, so too it runs through the landscape, carrying nutrients, filtering, cleaning and providing ecosystems with vital ingredients for life. Without water, life simply ceases to exist.
