Beauty from brokenness. Encouraging for all of us!
This is such a neat concept! Thanks for sharing this!
... also a great album from Death Cab for Cutie
Kintsugi
I have found many of their songs speak to me very deeply and may also to many on this site
from the song You've Haunted Me All My Life ...
"There was a storm when i was just a kid, that stripped the last coat of innocence."
