How can it be!!!!

How is this taste less, color less, order less, and in fact the more abundant thing on earth be so vital to life. Is it me or does something this ordinary and or bland thing we call water have such high stakes to our life make you wonder why. Why is it that we crave so much from this seeming less boring liquid object. Its like a trance and it feels so good to drink. Like it came direct form the tree of life itself. We need it and want it more than anything else.
