Wabi-Sabi is the Japanese philosophy of accepting your imperfections and making the most of life. "Wabi" can be defined as "understated elegance." "Sabi" is translated as "taking pleasure in the imperfect." The concept of Wabi-Sabi is needed now more than ever in a world where the relentless pursuit of perfection in relationships, possessions, and achievements are seen as signs of a successful life. However, this pursuit of perfection does come without a price. It may often lead to stress, anxiety, depression, and hasty judgment. The philosophy of Wabi-Sabi encourages us to focus on the hidden blessings in our lives and celebrate the way things are rather than how they should be.
