Too often people take for granted how even the most utilitarian items come into existence. There are still people who actually work for a living. I appreciate them.I will never ever complain about my work being hard. It’s back breaking what they do. And promise to pay attention to the things I buy for my house. Impressive and humbling images .Wish the mugs had been left plain white! Second, Clay can't be an endless source, it is non-renewable. yet we keep on buying without giving a second thought to these hardworking guys and the precious resource.
