Beauty In Imperfection and Intellectual Depth in Nature


"Japanese art of finding beauty in imperfection

and profundity in nature, of accepting the natural cycle

of growth, decay and death.

It's simple, slow, and uncluttered - 

and it reveres authenticity above all.

It celebrates cracks and crevices and all the other

marks that time, weather, and loving use leave behind.

It reminds us that we are all but transient beings on this planet -

that our bodies as well as the material world around us

are in the process of returning to the dust from which we came."
