When water arrives from rain, melting snow/ice, or flowing from a higher bump, it always finds the lowest spot it can. At that low spot it becomes a
puddle or if it can keeps moving. Always seeking a lower spot becoming brooks, and streams, and creeks, and rivers, until it evaporates or gets to
the ocean. There it evaporates, forms clouds, moves back over land to go around again. While it’s moving over bumps it’s nourishing the land,
the vegetation, and animals, who can all use it until it gets to the sea... unless it gets poisoned.

Or torn up by an asshole neighbor.
