I’ve enjoyed wonderful meals all over the world. I’ve tried many unique foods, including water buffalo and fried scorpion (I believe the best countries for excellent food start with France, Spain and China). However, I just couldn’t bring myself to eat at this restaurant found in Beijing.

Kintsugi
I recently was introduced to Kintsugi – the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold or silver lacquer and understanding that the piece is more beautiful for having been broken.
Life involves change and loss, scars and pain, chips and dings and sometimes we’re completely broken. But the art of Kintsugi reminds us of resilience and grace and overcoming and healing and putting the pieces back together and the reality that no one needs be perfect.
How cool is that? What a fabulous picture of how the Lord redeems each of us from what we have been to what we will be.
Note the publisher of this well used Bible (click picture to enlarge)
To get the full flavor of an herb, it must be pressed between the fingers, so it is the same with the Scriptures; the more familiar they become, the more they reveal their hidden treasures and yield their indescribable riches.
— John Chrysostom, A.D. 347-407
Much of the world lives below our poverty line. A good reminder for me to be grateful for what I have and take for granted (click photo to enlarge).
