(Japanese) – “Much has been written on this Japanese concept, but in a sentence, one might be able to understand it as “a way of living that focuses on finding beauty within the imperfections of life and accepting peacefully the natural cycle of growth and decay. Wabi-sabi is underplayed and modest, the kind of quiet, undeclared beauty that waits patiently to be discovered.”
