Wabikigai: Sustainable Thinking, Wabi Sabi, & Ikigai way of life 2
Recap:
Sustainable thinking: You become what you think about most of the time. So let those thoughts sustain you and help you in a positive way become the greatest version of yourself the world has ever known.
“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.”
Proverbs 23:7
Wabi Sabi: appreciating and finding perfection in imperfection.
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
2 Cor. 12:9
When look back at our imperfections and some of the mistakes we’ve made we may get into a negative rut, or that we can’t be loved, or feel useless, thinking it’s no use.
Wabi Sabi is a mindset shift that looks at the imperfections of things and finds the beauty in it. There is greatness in you being the only one. You can be the only you that can reach the people only you can. God said that you are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that is no mistake. Your mistakes and quirkiness are your character, and the sum of experience has created you to be were you are for such a time as this. You are here to turn hurts in to healing, applying your experiences as a balm to others so they won’t have to suffer through the same things.
Find the beauty in the imperfection.
Find the beauty in yourself.
Can you imagine the wood or the bowls not wanting to be themselves? They would not be able to support the bonsai tree. They would not have lived out their purpose.
Ikigai: finding the reason for being, and allowing that to be the source for a long, fulfilled life.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”
Proverbs 29:18
