Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your LIfe
This beautiful gift book from Gold (Open Your Mind, Open Your Life; The Tao of Mom) helps readers to see that imperfection is sometimes the source of the greatest insights and growth. From a Japanese expression meaning "wisdom in natural simplicity," Wabi Sabi celebrates life’s quirks, problems and blemishes. Gold calls it "the appreciation of the value and beauty of imperfection," and writes that it is a virtue he learned from his sage Japanese grandmother, Obaa-san. In short and beautifully designed chapters, Gold shares Obaa-san’s optimistic, common-sense philosophy of finding joy in the present despite weaknesses, failures and flaws. Throughout the book, carefully selected quotes from great thinkers and religious leaders invite readers to transform defects and trials into opportunities for growth and change.Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
