There is a concept in Japanese philosophy that finds imperfection, death, decay, things falling apart, to be a form of beauty.
Wabi Sabi.
Wabi, rustic simplicity
Sabi, taking pleasure in the imperfect
I’ve embraced the concept for years in my photography. Maybe it is time to embrace it in my life.
Wabi Sabi is the cracked tea cup, whose fissure has been filled with gold to highlight the beauty of the imperfection.
Maybe I need to see the years of major depression as the crack in my tea cup. Accept it as a part of my whole. Consider my imperfection to be a part of my beauty.
