I still remember that when I was a child, because I was a little more talented than ordinary people, I was fortunate enough to be praised by my teacher for writing beautifully many times. At that time, I was extremely proud, as if I were really the most beautiful calligrapher in the world. The more the teacher praised me, the more I liked to practice calligraphy. Gradually, my calligraphy level improved, and I found achievements and peace in my heart. Later, I turned over the handwriting when I was young, which was really not beautiful, but neat at best. I smiled, and I was glad that the teacher's encouragement made me make greater progress in the future.
When I was in middle school, I was sentimental and liked to grieve for spring and autumn. I like to exaggerate my emotions, and it's easy to cry when I feel sad. I also like to buy a beautiful notebook and copy those words in the font I think is the best. After that age, although I seldom turn them up again, my love for calligraphy still exists. I remember those days when I was young and restless. I wanted to pick up a pen and write down what I liked.
In the second day of junior high school, I went to my father's friend's house by chance, saw a lot of calligraphy works, suddenly fell in love with those elegant and free and easy brushstrokes, and had the idea of learning. After returning home, my father was very supportive, so I began to contact soft pen calligraphy. At that time, I had reached the age when academic pressure was getting heavier and heavier, and I didn't have any utilitarian intention to practice calligraphy. I just wrote two words to ease my hobby or nosy mood.
As for China's calligraphy, it can be said that I am still a "layman" and have not studied it systematically and theoretically, but every time I pick up a pen, I always feel a sense of peace in my heart, as if the whole world is silent with a stroke.
Although I don't know much about China's calligraphy, I always like to appreciate those beautiful fonts and copy them. For it, there is no long-term fatigue practice, but it has a profound friendship that flows forever.
When I was a sophomore, I chose liberal arts. They all say that the selected liberal arts are beautifully written and very popular, and making comprehensive papers in the future will leave a good impression on the marking teachers. That is, at that time, I began to pay attention to the handwriting of other students, and gradually felt that my handwriting was too naive, or it was still at the level of junior high school students. I am very unhappy to see that my neat regular script is in sharp contrast with the beautiful fonts that my peers began to learn from Lian Bi. It was also from then on that I began to contact running script.
Running script is a high school teacher's calligraphy at first glance. It is beautiful and smooth, without the rigidity of regular script, and unlike cursive script, but the font is mature and free and easy. I started to move home from the bookstore with a lot of books to practice running script. When I was doing papers and homework, I intentionally or unintentionally changed my rigid font a little according to the book. Maybe it's a little utilitarian. I think writing a good running script can add luster to my college entrance examination paper, and my running script has made rapid progress. And because there are many running scripts in Lian Bi, I have greatly improved my writing speed, which is fast and not chaotic.
Later, after graduating from high school, my running script level stopped there. Without that kind of motivation, I don't want to read those calligraphy instructions. I am immersed in the quick input method of the mobile phone computer, and the number of times I hold the pen is getting less and less. Fortunately, whenever I pick up a pen and write a line, I always feel a deep sense of pride. The most important thing is that whenever I write, I will think of the peace that calligraphy brought me in those difficult days and dreams.
I didn't know what this meant until I got to college. In the small journalism school, there are all kinds of calligraphy masters, whose calligraphy is clever, delicate, dignified or arrogant. I feel ashamed every time I see it, and I can't wait to write off the book.
Later, I gradually looked down on calligraphy, as long as I like it. Why should I care about other people's eyes and write better than others? In my opinion, real calligraphy can show my mind, write fluently when I am calm, draw wildly when I am upset, and regard calligraphy as something that can make me find my initial heart, rather than getting farther and farther away from it.
Along the way, I am glad that the encouragement of all kinds of people can make me have an obsessive love for calligraphy, and I also thank myself for persisting over the years and not forgetting my active mind and dream of writing.
