Spirituality 'Ows', 'Wows' and 'Nows'
Our spirituality policy at Lydiard Millicent based on the analogy of 'kintsugi'. This explores the spiritual possibilities of significant times: ‘ows, wows and nows’. The ‘WOW’ Times explores the spiritual possibilities of fantastic times. The ‘OW’ Times explores the spiritual possibilities of hard times. The ‘NOW’ Times explores the spiritual possibilities of ordinary, quiet moments and prayer.
Kintsugi is a Japanese word meaning ‘golden joinery’. Artists use golden glue to repair broken pottery bringing unexpected beauty and, in some cases, allowing the light to shine through.
Spirituality can be seen as the gold with which we can fill the gaps that may be caused by the ‘ows’ and ‘wows’ and even ‘nows’ of life.
