La Bellezza della Vita Imperfetta

"Wabi sabi" is more than an expression ; it's a wonderview and life philosophy that signifies : true beauty lies in imperfection. It's a philosophy based on the idea that nothing is immuable or finished, and therefore perfect ; each element is imperfect, and to find beauty, one must seek imperfection. A valuable lesson for all of us who tend to hurt ourselves through relentless striving for perfection or obsessive comparison with others, and the fear of never measuring up.

This photo is the only one I haven't retouched, leaving it as it is with its most evident imperfection, its pronounced blurriness. It's delicate beauty shines through. Posted on Instagram, it's the photo that received the most likes.
