EVERYTHING IS ART

Not the best photo, but surely a heartfelt prayer: PLEASE TRY TO WRITE. Just try and that will start a multi-layered, multi-folding ( and unfolding) process.

These brushes represent the finest basic tools of calligraphy - one of Japan's cultural treasurers. Its ease, fluidity and total mastery defy the digital age.

There are an astonishing 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites (buildings, temples, parks and entire cities) in Japan and an additional 21 Intangible Cultural Sites. This distinction includes cooking, production of traditional crafts and (my personal favorite) cooking. THE PEOPLE we've met should also enjoy this honor.

Finding oneself - spiritually and geographically - is easily accomplished using such unique and beautiful treasurers as landmarks, beacons and guides. Where else is this possible?
