Today I read about the Japanese art called Kintsugi , the art of putting broken pottery pieces back together with gold. Which built the idea of embracing flaws and imperfections to create a stronger more beautiful piece of art.
What a beautiful concept!! It doesn’t matter if it’s pottery that is broken or ourselves we pick up the pieces and mend ourselves back together again. Its all part of building our character in our journey we call life.
The mending makes us stronger and wiser. Except your imperfections they make you unique.
I was born an Old Soul....and raised by a Grandmother who loved God more then anything in the world...I come from a line of Strong Women...I love change and dream of experiencing the beauty of the World...I buried the real ME and built a wall....but with every blow my wall cracked and it came tumbling down..."ME"...regrouped one step at a time...I am now writing the finals chapters of my Life...which I hope are long chapters...with some regrets...but excepting the fact that I can't change the past..."IT IS WHAT IT IS"....regrets are ok ...only if you learn from them.

I’ve just explored this exact theme, and I find that we all have our stories to tell, no matter how exciting or boring we think our lives are. And I like this indirect mention of wabi-sabi too. Thanks for this post!
