The Song Dynasty was a rebirth of the arts and the rising middle class became interested in daily utilitarian objects to enhance and enrich their lifestlye .
I have combined handwritten quotes by inspirational peace leaders to remind us of the positive and focus our attention on issues that contribute and promote healthy living in a fast paced world that forgets the basics of being human and sharing the planet with other living creatures. Mother Teresa is one of my favorite peace activists.
