WABI-SABI


The Japanese philosophy called Wabi-Sabi is about noticing beauty in the 'naturally imperfect world'.

For the Zen Buddhists, "wabi" is something that is simple and humble, and "sabi" means something that is not perfect.

Wabi translates to 'less is more'.



Wabi-Sabi means appreciating a quiet rainy day and the impermanence of all things.

In the 'perfect' game of golf you get a 'hole in one' at every hole?

That could get boring.



The advantage of adopting Wabi-Sabi is that it might make us less stressed.



"A wabi sabi relationship is one in which you deliberately accept each other where you are - imperfect, unfinished, and mortal.

"Appreciation for imperfections in others, and even in yourself, is the essential wabi sabi frame of mind."
