I’ve long been fascinated by the Japanese art of Kintsugi. Broken vessels are not discarded, but repaired with a golden bond, enhancing its flaws, making the vessel more beautiful than before.
Our hearts are like this. They are broken countless times in our lifetime, and often heal from tragic circumstances with years of love, compassion, and forgiveness. Some hurts, i believe never heal or take much longer. Our hearts store love, heartache, milestones, and countless loved ones.
The result is a heart that is stronger and more lovely than we ever knew was possible.
