My aunt likes studying very much. After retirement, she went to a university for the aged. Soon, my aunt fell in love with calligraphy. In order to write calligraphy well, my aunt squeezed out a lot of time to practice, and even spent a lot of money on high-quality brush and pure rice paper. My aunt also has many specialties: she can play the piano and write poems ... whenever I ask her why she has to learn so many things, she always smiles and answers, "If you are old, you have to learn so many things, which will always be useful in the future." Learning is not a burden, you can gain happiness from learning! Learn more and enrich yourself! "
My aunt not only loves to study, but also works hard and can persevere. Let's take her practicing calligraphy as an example. Every few years, we will go back to our hometown in Shaoguan to visit the grave, and when we get back to our hometown, we will live at my aunt's house. One year, we came to my aunt's house, just like in a calligraphy gallery. My aunt likes to write calligraphy. She likes to hang her calligraphy at home for others to enjoy. The first time we saw my aunt's works, we thought her handwriting was average. Those crooked words are like drunken people who can't stand still. Although his handwriting is average, menstruation's enthusiasm for calligraphy has not been extinguished. I often see her practicing hard in the study for hours at a time.
A few years later, we returned to our hometown. When I arrived at my aunt's house, there were still calligraphy works hanging on the wall. Those calligraphy works are vigorous and powerful, and they are definitely masterpieces. I think: A few years ago, my aunt always hung her own calligraphy works in the hall. Why do you want to hang others' now?
I found my aunt out, so I asked my uncle (my aunt's son) where she was. Uncle said, "She shuts herself in the study and practices hard every day. Now, she must be practicing calligraphy in the study. " I gently pushed open my aunt's study door, only to see her standing at the table, her feet spread shoulder-width, her upper body slightly leaning forward, her waist slightly arched, her left hand pressing the paper, and her right hand scrawled it, with vigorous and powerful Chinese characters on the paper: "There is no way to learn the sea, it is difficult to sail." "This is a long shot, alert! Did you write those calligraphy works outside? " I shouted in surprise. When my aunt saw me, she put down her pen and enthusiastically pulled me into the study. She smiled and said to me, "Yes, what do you think of my calligraphy?" I said to my aunt, "Aunt, I haven't seen you for three days. I'm impressed! How did you do it? " My aunt stroked my head gently and said to me earnestly, "progress comes from hard practice and persistence!" " No pains, no gains! "
From then on, whenever I encounter difficulties, I will see a scene in my mind: an old lady in her sixties, standing in front of the table, her feet spread shoulder-width, her upper body leaning forward slightly, her waist slightly hunched, her left hand pressing the paper, and her right hand scribbling.
