When we turn the handle on a water faucet, we just assume that water will come
pouring out. But what if there is a malfunction? Or what if this is a private
well, and the well has run dry? That may be a problem you will have to fix af

enance, for lack of a better word. You need to tend to a connection that you m
ay be taking for granted. That's the way to keep it going strong.
