Wabi Sabi

Before a continued focus on Spring's 

more flamboyant manifestations,

I like to honor the more quiet, more subtle beauty of nature,

Wabi Sabi.

Flawed Beauty

Imperfection

Impermanence

In the study of Wabi Sabi 

we learn to find the most simple manifestations 

interesting, fascinating and beautiful. 

We learn to recognize beauty in simplicity,
authenticity and transience.

Nothing is lasting.
Nothing gets finished.
Nothing is perfect.
  

The aging process when not avoided
 teaches us deeper truths about life.

That which arises came from what had been before.
Let's honor all seasons, Spring and Fall,
young and old
and appreciate each innate authentic being
for it's light and it's shadow.
