I heard about Kintsugi several years ago. I love Kintsugi…and let me tell you why. I’ve heard people refer to themselves as broken. Which always makes me sad because people are not broken. They may need help, they may have shortcomings, but that’s just imperfect perfection. It does NOT mean you’re broken…it means you’re HUMAN! I think people call a heart broken when it aches, but…
