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…
Pick Me Up Playlist
Obviously I love music, but I’m fairly particular about what kind of words I want to hear. Which is why I sometimes want a pick me up. I think the music we listen to really matters, and that we should only be putting good thoughts in our minds!
