Kintsugi, which literally means “to join with gold,” is the ancient Japanese art of repairing bowls with lacquer and gold.
The bowl is not only restored to its original purpose, but it becomes far more valuable.
This practice reminds us that something can break and yet still be beautiful—and that once repaired, it is stronger at the broken places.
There’s some power in how we can narrate our future.
But we have to be willing to embrace our brokenness.
Struggle well.
