Love is wabi-sabi


This is the fourth post in the Love, Deconstructed series in honor of Valentine’s Day.

Love, deconstructed #4: Love is Wabi-sabi.

 

 

How would the love in your life change if you embraced the beauty of imperfection & the impermanent nature that is love? 

Wabi-sabi is a philosophy that honors:

  • asymmetry
  • roughness
  • irregularity
  • simplicity
  • economy
  • austerity
  • modesty
  • intimacy
  • …and an appreciation of the creative integrity of natural objects and processes.

Wabi-sabi personified:

    This post made me realize that all of the beautiful crazy wabi-sabi I love and embrace in my friends and my cat – I would refuse to accept in a man.

    Hmm … still single much? This might require some serious thought …
