Do you know that those cracks that reside after a break make you the shining, unique person that you are?
I know that when you are feeling broken, it isn't easy to see the emotional wounds and feel unique and beautiful. It's hard to see that when you crack, it allows healing light to come pouring through you.
Let me tell you about 'kintsugi' or 'kintsukuroi', as it is otherwise known.
Kintsugi is a Japanese process that started as early as the late 15th Century. The Japanese don't believe that when something is broken it becomes worthless or useless. In fact, they repair it. I suppose they could repair it in a way that barely shows the break, but instead they fill the cracks with gold. Yep. GOLD.
So not only does that broken pottery keep it's worth and purpose... it actually GROWS IN VALUE.
Just like you, poppet.
Every time you 'break', you are restored with more wisdom, more strength and more beauty.
The best part? You always had that inner wisdom, strength and beauty. It was always there. It's just that now the cracks let it stream out of you :)
