There is a Japanese art to repairing broken pottery. It’s called Kintsugi. Usually, the attempt to repair these broken items is made not because of the object's value from a monetary point of view. The decision to mend an item is usually based on its importance to a person. The repair adds beauty to the piece and becomes part of that object's history. It repairs the item and hardens it with a visible vein of gold. Ultimately making the object more valuable in the process. Recovery is a lot like that for us. We are still broken, but we are now stronger in those broken areas before we were broken. We have been “kintsugied.”

Reflections

Are you stronger now than you were before recovery?
