If our porcelain teacup or plate is broken, most of us discard these and buy new ones. But some people strive to repair these and continue to use these. This gives a feeling of belonging. I came across an interesting documentary on such people and craftspeople who mend the broken pottery. The show ends with a display of the power of planting a tree. Let me share the amazing show.
