Beyond Repair

People are all too ready to tell you about kintsugi, about broken pots being made more valuable and beautiful through being repaired with gold. But you know what? Things sometimes just get broken beyond repair, and the best thing to do is toss them and move on.

When have you made a positive choice by discarding what was beyond repair?

The Real Disaster

“There is a saying in Tibetan, ‘Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.’ No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that’s our real disaster.”
― Dalai Lama XIV

How have you used tragedy as a source of strength?

Dare to Hope

“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”
― Michael Jackson

In what aspect of your life are you daring?
