Thought for today:
Good morning kings and queens,
I am going to set the week off with this thought.....
maybe the reason you don't heal is because you're trying to return the person you were before the trauma...you can't return that person has changed. Have you ever given thought to the fact that you also can't return because that person was also the person who either made the decision that led to the trauma or will embody the pain and confusion of the situation?
I'm saying this to tell you to KNOW that there the trauma has created a fragility that you must handle with care. You know that a fissure has been created but it should not render the vessel useless...practice human "kintsugi"
"Kintsugi (金継ぎ, "golden joinery"), also known as Kintsukuroi (金繕い, "golden repair"), is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum, a method similar to the maki-e technique. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.
As a philosophy, kintsugi can be seen to have similarities to the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, an embracing of the flawed or imperfect. Japanese aesthetics values marks of wear by the use of an object. This can be seen as a rationale for keeping an object around even after it has broken and as a justification of kintsugi itself, highlighting the cracks and repairs as simply an event in the life of an object rather than allowing its service to end at the time of its damage or breakage, and can be seen as a variant of the adage "Waste not, want not"
Be you, love you....embrace your frailties and flaws...they too are part of your beauty ~KB
