Features: Since patterns are objectively existing, people cannot arbitrarily change them. Only after recognizing them can they grasp them well, use them earnestly and flexibly, and thus accomplish all tasks and achieve desired goals. Therefore, those who do not understand the application of writing patterns cannot write well. Even if someone has great talent and occasionally aligns with the rules of calligraphy by chance while writing, it may still be considered good calligraphy, but they can only be called a skilled calligrapher, not a true calligrapher. Qian Ruoshui of the Song Dynasty once said, "The ancient masters of calligraphy often did not know the brush techniques." Indeed, such things exist. Middle-aged and elderly people should have the same desire to learn as young people, achieving the principle of "learning until old age." Calligraphy and painting are most suitable for the elderly to learn. "Calligraphy can promote longevity" is a common experience shared by many long-lived elders. In China's calligraphy circles, there is a saying, "Southern Immortal, Northern Buddha." The Southern Immortal refers to Su Juxian of Shanghai, who lived to the age of 110, and the Northern Buddha refers to Sun Mofu of Beijing, who lived to the age of 107. Both lived long lives because they were lifelong enthusiasts of calligraphy. Calligraphy combines stillness, beauty, and movement, naturally achieving the goal of longevity. This book is a guiding resource for middle-aged and elderly people to learn calligraphy and painting.
