Gold From Broken Pieces – Kintsugi Love

Reflect on your heartbreak like a work of Kintsugi, finding beauty and strength in the brokenness.

Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold, resulting in a piece that is more beautiful and valuable after being broken and repaired. This prompt urges you to apply this philosophy to your heartbreak: the break is not the end but the start of something new. Look at the faults in your relationship, the cracks in your heart and reflect on what you have learned from them and how you have grown. This is a deeply introspective exercise with a very positive spin on heartbreak.
