Kintsukuroi (and Some Other Random Thoughts)

I read about kintsukuroi on Jasmine Star's blog the other day and can't get it out of my head. (Why am I reading a weeding photographer's blog, you may ask? Because I really admire the way she runs her business...especially how she feels that you get ahead by helping other people, not stepping on them. I believe that too. It's how I try to run my business. I feel like it's pretty rare.)

Anyway, kintsukuroi - it's Japanese, "to repair with gold", the theory being that something is more beautiful for having been broken.

Honestly, I'm not sure I 100% believe this, but it's such a lovely thought, and I hope that it is true. 

On a completely unrelated topic, so sorry to neglect this space so terribly as of late...a massive pre-vacation workload and now I'm on vacation and don't feel like doing anything, plus the kids are teething and incredibly fussy/clingy at the moment so makes it hard to do anything but be with them, which is OK because, ahhhhhh, so great not to have to worry about work deadlines and just spend the whole day with my kiddos.

(At least that's how I feel most of the time. But when they haven't stopped whining for 3 hours straight and both want my lap to themselves, pushing the other one off, all I can think is, "what am I doing wrong?")

Anyway. Hope everyone out there is doing well and I will be posting more regularly soon, promise.

Happy Wednesday!

XOXO
