    It was reassuring for both of us to know that we are still there for one another even if we don't speak all the time. It always feels good to talk to someone you don't get to see all the time.

    How did shortening your showers affect your awareness of water conservation? What other water-saving practices can you adopt in your daily routine?

    You sacrifice some of your peace in a sense, but those long showers where your fingers become slightly proony show how much water you're using compared to being in and out and not treating it as a luxury. Another practice would be only using the dishwasher when it's full, and being cautious with how much water is being run when hand washing dishes.
