"Wabi-sabi" is a Japanese aesthetic concept that appreciates the beauty of imperfection, impermanence, and incompleteness.

It finds beauty in things that are modest, unpretentious, and aged, embracing the natural cycle of growth, decay, and death.

Wabi-sabi values simplicity, authenticity, and the unique character of objects and experiences.

It encourages an acceptance of the transient nature of life and the acceptance of flaws or defects as part of the overall beauty and essence of something.

This concept is often associated with traditional Japanese tea ceremonies, Zen Buddhism, and the appreciation of rustic, weathered, or handmade objects.

TLDR: Life ain’t perfect, and I’m ok with that.
