Happy Sunday everyone! This would be my first time participating in this contest by the #LadiesofHive community. I missed out on the last contest, I wanted to join today until I saw the contest has ended and I decided to check the community and I saw this current one. Thank God I found it on time and not @merit.ahama inviting me, instead I would invite you 😅😅😅

For this week's contest, here is the question;

WOULD I RATHER GO WITHOUT WATER OR ELECTRICITY FOR A WEEK?

This question is tricky but you just have to choose one. What would you choose if you were the one?

Thank God it's just for a week. I won't die at least. A week is seven days, so I am good to go. Lol

I haven't chosen my answer yet na! 😬

We all know how important water is to the body. We have always been advised to drink a glass of water early in the morning when we wake up because we have been dehydrated for the whole night. Do you imagine not drinking water for 2 hours. How will you feel? I have experienced it before that my throat got dried up, and was itching me from within. I had to drink water to stay hydrated. Water is life and you can't go a day without drinking it or else you might die.

Now, see me going off completely for a week without water.

There is a big difference between light and darkness. With light, everywhere looks lively, you tune in the TV, plug your phone to get it charged before continuing your normal activities online. I cannot imagine being in a place without electricity especially that most of my work is done on my phone or laptop. How do I survive if I don't work? I need electricity to do all of these.

Do you know I have stayed up at a place for seven years without electricity and yet, I still browse with my phone? What was the trick? 😄

Thank God for Generator. Though it wasn't easy buying fuel everytime to help your generator bring light into the house. But, we still survived without electricity.

Can you now guess my answer? I would go without electricity for a week.

This is what I would do to stay up for the whole week without electricity.

I would make sure I have two to three powerbanks with me fully charged plus my phone before I start the one week without light.

My phone battery is a strong one that can go one and a half day before the battery gets low. Then each Powerbank lasts till a day and a half too. By the time I exhaust the whole power bank, my one week is completed and then the electricity returns back. 😝😝

I wouldn't want to say what would happen if I go without water for a week. Of course, I won't enjoy the electricity. It would be so difficult to live my life for the whole week except I would be drinking my urine 😬😬 God forbids

Water is just like food that it can keep you alive just by taking a drop alone. Water is essential to our lives and I have never seen anyone being an enemy to water. He is already a dead man.

I really enjoyed this contest and I want to keep up with participating in this community.
Here is the Ladies of Hive contest to join.

I am inviting @merit.ahama and @maryjacy to opt in for this Contest.

Hello Princess! It's a good thing your phone battery is strong and can last one and half days. Thank God for generators, right? Water is life and we cannot do without it. But electricity, there's always an alternative!

Nicely done. Good luck in the contest. Happy Sunday. 😊

You received 5 LADY(LOH) for entering the Ladies of Hive contest!

Please note that since our LOH token is still so new, that it will be worth more if we HOLD them for a bit before trying to sell them. Some have been trying to sell them immediately after receiving them, but holding them for a bit will help them to increase in value! We are working behind-the-scenes to try to keep the price stable, but the "sell orders" are hampering the stabilization of the price of this new token. Please hold on to your tokens. Thank you! 🙂

Tenga en cuenta que, dado que nuestro token LOH todavía es tan nuevo, valdrá más si los MANTENEMOS por un tiempo antes de intentar venderlos. Algunos de ustedes han estado tratando de venderlos inmediatamente después de recibirlos, ¡pero retenerlos por un tiempo les ayudará a aumentar su valor! Estamos trabajando entre bastidores para tratar de mantener estable el precio, pero las "órdenes de venta" están obstaculizando la estabilización del precio de este nuevo token. ¡Considere esperar! ¡Gracias! 🤗

I've got 10 gallons of water stored just in case! My stove is natural gas, and I have a natural gas fireplace. Both are essential in the winter when you live in a place that gets bitter cold, just in case the power does go out! If I had to choose, I'm like you, I would choose going without electricity

Yeaaa💃💃 No one can actually do without water even though electricity is also important to us but we have no choice than to go for one. That's great.

I like how you prepped yourself with dissecting the time into just 7 days hahaha

You know what's funny, I can go without drinking water a whole day - I'd joke I'm a camel but of course it isn't good, and these days I have to make a conscious effort to drink the requirement.

Nevertheless, I'm going to have to choose water over electricity too. It can be my week WiFi Fast week haha

Thank you so much for participating @princessbusayo
I enjoyed reading your entry :D

I agree to you going a day without drinking water because some actually do go into dry Fasting and praying to God without taking anything into their mouth.
Thank you for reading my article. 🤗

That was a good plan :) But there are ways to have good water without having a running water system installed :)

Well written and I agree I would choose going without electricity after all the body can only last 3 days without water

Going without electricity is an inconvenience of course but nit life threatening

It's a no-brainer that most people would likely prefer to go without electricity to going without water.

I doubt the possibility of making it out alive, after weeks of no water.

If one survives it, the damage ould be almost irreparable.

As for electricity, it just be boredom for some. And the inability to perform some task over the net. Such damages could be made up for. It's nothing compared to lack of water.

For the love of sound argument, I would have love to read contrary opinion. Lol

Good to see that you chose water over electricity. Obviously, I would do same.
