侘寂
Wabi-sabi is a Japanese concept and philosophy that embraces the beauty of imperfection, transience, and simplicity.
It recognizes that everything is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete, and values the natural world. Wabi-sabi encourages people to find beauty in imperfections, such as cracks in plates, tears in jackets, and life's losses. It can help people find strength and beauty in the process of healing and repair, and frame challenges rather than finding faults in them.
I moved to Japan around 5 years ago by accident, it is a very long story which I will share with you later in another article but, all you need to know for now is that my entire life has been full of these "uncertain" moments (how did I, a Mexican artist, end up living in Japan and marrying an amazing Korean woman?).
After a few (probably too many) of those uncertain moments I learned to embrace the fact that the beauty of life lies in imperfect moments, which is kind of funny if you think about it, since I gre up in a family that taught me that in order to be successful I had to control every aspect of my life.
