Every time I hear something good, I feel happy, and when I see a strange calligrapher, I copy it by myself. Is this considered an honest poem?

Yes.

Yu the Great worshiped when he heard good words, and the author was happy when he heard good deeds, which shows that the author has the ambition to "see the good and think about others"; when he saw the strange book, he worked hard and copied it with his own hands, which shows that the author studied hard. In the early Ming Dynasty, Song Lian, who was known as a literary emperor, once talked about his addiction to learning and copying books in "Preface to Ma Sheng in Dongyang": "I was obsessed with learning when I was young. My family was poor and I could not read the books, so I always borrowed them from the book collection house. , I write it down by hand, and count the days to pay it back. The weather is very cold, the inkstone is hard, and my fingers cannot be bent or stretched, so I can't be lazy." This couplet also expresses the author's good attitude and enterprising spirit of self-cultivation and study. Paying attention to good knowledge and cultivating one's own healthy emotions is also the mentality that should be maintained in health. Although the text of this couplet is plain, it is a famous saying to encourage people to do good and cultivate noble sentiments.

This is a study couplet by Zhu Yunming, a calligrapher and writer in the Ming Dynasty
