Okay, maybe not each drop of water, but certainly SOME of the water molecules. Considering the super high number of molecules of water in just one drop. The chances of ONE of them being recycled from some ancient one is pretty high in your life.
I once read that it’s likely that every breath you take has at least one atom from Julius Caesar’s dying breath. (and if you are sitting still with no air circulation, it might be same one over and over again).
Yeah, thanks for that. I had a time drinking water when I was a kid after some wise guy showed me a dead cow rotting in a stream and reminded me that the water was flowing down to where the city gets water.

That can turn a person from drinking plain water in a heart beat.

And this is why we make tea. Among other things, it’s been boiled.

Everything gets recycled over time, even us.

As the late great W.C. Fields used to note, “Fish pee in water.” Which is why he wouldn’t touch the stuff.

When I lived in Louisiana we drank water from The Mississippi. A phenol barge leaked into the river and you could sure taste it in the water.

Sure glad I filter my water. Now that I think about it, guess it’s time to change the sock.
