Mom has a bone problem.
When she falls, her bones shatter.
She smiles and gathers the pieces.
They get glued back together again,
and she waits for them to heal.
I learned the Way of Kintsugi from my mother. She’s 102 and lives with osteoporosis. She falls, breaks bones, gathers herself, undergoes repairs, and continues to meet life
with this smile.
