Message In A Bottle…

When I had a severe case of cottonmouth for a few years I always had a water bottle within my reach. After awhile it became a natural accessory so much so I felt uncomfortable if I wasn’t holding onto a bottle. It became a security blanket of sorts. “What do you do with your hands when you’re just standing there if you don’t have a water bottle to hold onto?” “What do you do when you don’t have anything smart or funny to say and you don’t have a water bottle to take a sip from just to fill the awkward void of dialogue.” Somewhere, I weaned myself off my water bottle dependency and reflecting on this past year, I think I have had 5 bottles of water.

My past and current relationship with water bottles makes this new article by Fast Company irresistible to put down. It will make you say, “Wow” and “Whoa” in the same breath when you come to terms with what this means for us as capitalists and as global citizens. You can read this article by going here:
