In the second grade of primary school, my father sent me to learn calligraphy. On the first day of school, the teacher taught us posture. The teacher said that our backs should be straight, we should hold paper in our left hand and brush in our right hand, so we must concentrate on writing.
First of all, the teacher taught us some "one" characters and told us: "Although there is only one horizontal, it is very heavy, so be careful." I tried the ink. When I write, I feel that there is an infinite force supporting me, but what I write is a crooked "one", just like a brand-new "rut mark" I wrote several "ones" in succession, not only like "the car was demolished", but also like the "rut marks" of the car. I threw the pen away in frustration and said, "I don't practice, I don't practice." The teacher came over and touched my head and said, "Do you know that the edge of the sword comes from sharpening and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold?" If a person wants to succeed, he must endure hardships, exercise more and win by his own efforts. "
I picked up the pen again, continued to practice, and finally wrote the correct word "one". After several years of hard work, my grades are good. Now, I gradually understand that the sharpness of the sword is produced by repeated tempering, and the delicate plum blossom is also released after the test of severe winter.
