before yesterday, i had a vague notion of what "wabi sabi" meant. mostly, i think, in reference to how to decorate my home. yesterday, i did a pretty thorough search on the term for a swap that i want to join.
i figured i'd better have a better idea...turns out, i live a wabi sabi life.
All things are impermanent
All things are imperfect
All things are incomplete
i must have had some inkling because i had a skeleton tattooed on my arm. in his hand, is flame and the kanji for "heavenly fire". i've had so many people ask about that tattoo in particular...lots of people seem to think it's "gross", but it so completely and simply bears the message that "this too shall pass".
being impermanent, imperfect and incomplete is such a wonderful invitation to change.
