Kintsukuroi

"Kintsugi (or Kintsukuroi, which means “golden repair”) is the centuries-old Japanese art of fixing broken pottery with a special lacquer dusted with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. This repair method celebrates each artifact’s unique history by emphasizing its fractures and breaks instead of hiding or disguising them. Kintsugi often makes the repaired piece even more beautiful than the original, revitalizing it with new life."

I think this is a wonderful way to look at our own personal lifescars. We are all unique from our own history and I wish we could see this as the extraordinary value we bring with us ✨
