Introduction

Peace is a perfect balance, a combination of all the necessary and positive stimuli that foster growth and development. A plant demonstrates the simplicity of this balance. If a plant can lay its roots in soil that contains all necessary elements for life it will grow and help sustain the human race. We as humans are more closely related to plants than the food chain presents. Like plants, humans require a perfect balance of elements if they are to grow and develop; the most basic of which are safety, food and water. Drought, political instability, economic downturn and ethnic tension have made this perfect balance a more foreign and unattainable concept for the majority of the world’s population.
