For years, I have been reading a passage in my workshops about a cracked pot. It has been a source of inspiration for some time, and here's my visual representation of that story.
This is the story.....
"The cracked pot is a story about a water bearer with two pots, one perfect and one with a crack. The cracked pot feels ashamed because it leaks water and only delivers half the amount to the master's house each day. The water bearer reveals that they have intentionally planted seeds along the cracked pot's side of the path, and the daily leakage has watered the flowers, which makes the path beautiful. The story teaches that imperfections can create beauty and be a source of unexpected good."
