"Wabi" means that we can feel fullness in poverty OR we can see beauty in unpretentious style of living.
For example, even a family do not have enough money to go to a wonderful restaurant, they can enjoy their meal that made by mother in their house.
This way of thinking is "WABI".
"Sabi" means that real beauty that we can see from old thing like antique style. Antiques look old; however, because of the reason people gain respect and value as time goes by.

Both word is in Japanese, and the basic idea of "WABI-SABI" might be a bit different from culture to culture, but I guess how people think about "the thinking" is almost same all around the world.
