We discussed the Japanese practice of “Kintsukuroi” which looks at broken pottery and how the repair is done with the “understanding that the piece is more beautiful for having been broken. We feel this can cover our lives in that we have all been through hard experiences in life but have the opportunity to learn from our experiences, no matter how painful they are, can then make us learn more about ourselves and have a deeper understanding for others. Below is a beautiful quote from Leonard Cohen
“There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.”
