Is it still useful to learn calligraphy today?

From the utilitarian point of view, it seems that modern society does not need calligraphy, but in fact, the rarer it is, the more precious it is. I don't know that the giant panda has become a national protected animal and the ancient city of Pingyao has become a world cultural heritage. Therefore, calligraphy will receive more attention in the future and will be pushed to the height of saving China culture by people of insight.

In addition, non-utilitarian, calligraphy is also a good choice for individuals to "cultivate self-cultivation", which can improve their artistic appreciation ability.

So, you have to stick to it. It takes a lot of resistance to realize your dream, including your confusion.
