Unbelievable... 5 years today I lost the best thing that ever was in my life. Oct 29-1999, Nov 14-2014- and my heart still aches. Keesh I miss you as much today as the day you left..... you will always be "Mah Boy"

There is an ancient Japanese method of repairing broken crockery called Kintsugi. They use a resin mixed with gold to put the pieces back together again leaving beautiful golden seams running thru the piece. Kintsugi is also seen by some as a metaphor for those of us who are broken and healing. The process of mending by Kintsugi not only puts the piece back together it makes it stronger, beautiful, and unique. Nothing breaks the same way another does so each repaired piece is unlike any other even tho they may all have been originally made from the same mold. The repaired edges are jagged and crooked but the gold gives them a soft strength that shine with a beauty all their own. I like to think you and I and so many others here have that same unique, beautiful shine. That we are stronger because we have been broken into jagged, crooked pieces but we are healing, slowly but surely just as the gold infused resin takes time to cure the broken edges of crockery. You are stronger than you once believed and years from now you will be stronger still and shine more beautifully than ever.
Hugs again and again,
Leslie
