Wabi-sabi - 侘寂

Just wanted to take a moment here to share with you something I've just discovered called Wabi Sabi (侘寂), which is based on Zen Buddhism. I find that it's just really me, and how I've lived my life so far :) Gonna go read up more on Zen Buddhism and the art of Teaism soon!

The following are taken from a book I borrowed title "Practical Wabi Sabi" by Simon G Brown.


Principles of Wabi Sabi

• Living in the moment
• Simplicity
• Emptiness
• Intuition
• Transient Beauty
• Incompleteness
• Acceptance of Imperfection
• Asymmetry
• Appreciation
• Tranquility
• Naturalness
• Non-Attachment
• Humbleness, Modesty and Austerity
• Everything Changes
