Kintsugi Angel

24k gold leaf and contemporary Kintsugi methods.

Angels in the ethereal realm I have not seen. Perhaps they are flawless, made of pure light or have a whole lot of eyes and wings. I can just speak to what I have seen, and the angels in my own life are the friends, family, fellow creatives, strangers etc who have expended some of their energy to be down right incredibly for others. My second observation is that part of their strength, character and ability to spot a need often comes from having had a few things in their own lives that has taken a chunk out. They picked up their pieces, bled from the sharp edges, tried to make them fit back to the degree possible and chose to honor what they went through with a bit of sparkle and nobility. Some angels are also anonymous or their names have been forgotten but the memory of their kindness remains. Case in point, I have so much gratitude for anyone that honks at me when I’m trying to change lanes at the wrong time.
