Kintsukuroi — More Beautiful for Having Been Broken.

This Japanese word describes the art of repairing broken pottery. On another level, it is a powerful metaphor of life.

The original story is said to have originated in the 1500's and speaks of a beautiful hand crafted bowl given to a great military leader of the time. The bowl was dropped and broke into 5 pieces. Instead of throwing the bowl pieces away, it was carefully reconstructed.
The bowl, having been broken, was not seen as worthless or devalued. It was in fact, seen as being even more valuable. It now possessed a resilience and beauty that it did not previously.
It is more beautiful for having been broken.

The proof of the bowl's fragility is evident; so is its resilience.

I choose to be an outragee, so therefore I'm right and the outrager must to be silenced!

Free speech for all!! (but only if you agree with me).

Sad state of the world we've become.

Google Stephen Hughes comedian for some straight advice on the way the powers that be have sucked people power and personal freedom away over the last 40 years. Still accelerating :(

Nice bird BoB

If you don't sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice.

Sooner or later your health will be your number one priority.

Either you make it a priority now, or it will make itself a priority later.

An idle mind is the devils playground.

Tomorrow
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!
When I'm stuck with a day
That's grey
And lonely
I just stick out my chin
And grin
And say
Oh!
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on
'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow, tomorrow!
I love ya tomorrow!
You're always
A day
Away!
When I'm stuck with a day
That's grey
And lonely
I just stick out my chin
And grin
And say
Oh!
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on
'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow, tomorrow!
I love ya tomorrow!
You're always
A day
Away!
Tomorrow, tomorrow!
I love ya tomorrow!
You're always
A day
Away!
