I chose the artistic tradition of kintsugi as a symbol of the practice with great thought and, for those curious, want to share a bit about its meaning. The landing page image is a close-up of a contemporary artist's take on the ancient craft of kintsugi (seen in full on the current page).  While it is an intrinsically beautiful object, it is also imbued with meaning.

Kintsugi is the art of repairing broken pottery with gold alloy so as to celebrate the breakage as part of the object’s history, rather than as the end of the story.  This is connected to the Japanese concept of wabi sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection.  We've all felt broken in and by life at times but by healing, by gilding those scars, we turn them into markers of strength and a life fully lived.  That, to me, is beautiful.
