Wabi-Sabi

Beauty in the imperfect.

You find peace not in fixing everything but in accepting it — the cracks, the ageing, the impermanence. Wabi-sabi is your way of seeing: a quiet cure for perfectionism that lets you love the imperfect, fleeting reality you actually live in.

“When the tea bowl is cracked, the crack is not a flaw to be hidden. It is the bowl's history, and the gold that mends it is the bowl's honour.” — Japanese proverb
“In the tearoom, the host sweeps and waters the path, but leaves a few fallen leaves where they lie. Even cleanliness must not be perfect.” — Sen no Rikyu
“Rikyu's son swept the garden until it was spotless. Rikyu shook a maple, and three leaves fell. "Now," he said, "it is clean."” — Sen no Rikyu
