“The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver or platinum.”
That’s my resolution (revolution)for 2017: building myself up again, fixing the puzzle.
I wanted to be unbreakable. I needed to be whole and strong. But I’m only human. We all are. Falling into pieces is only natural, when something strikes. But then we get up. We pick up the pieces, we check the bruises.
And there’s beauty in them. There’s a huge value in our flaws and scars. All we can do is try and learn from them. Making out of them something to be proud of. Making them Art. Gold.
“There is a crack in everything That’s how the light gets in.” - Leonard Cohen-
