Learning continues...Calligraphy

Being a teacher there is always a need to know as much as possible so that I can pass on information to my students. It doesn’t always have to be related to the course. Often many a students are not aware of simple things happening in their city leave alone country or the world. Also one never knows their skills might come handy. Like in my case it was mother’s day a few days after my mom’s birthday. I wanted to do something special. 

Music lessons done, sports done, cooking classes done what next then? I began calligraphy classes (Level 1), much to the displeasure of mom. But I had to do what I had to do. It was fun  and difficult. Beautiful handwriting as always fascinated me. I believe there is a connection between handwriting and clarity of mind and thoughts. And my handwriting has been appreciated and otherwise.What's the big deal, nothing. I just wanted a beautiful  handwriting that's all. Hence calligraphy.  

My skeptical mom expected me to use calligraphy in every greeting or congratulatory note  which  I refused to do to her displeasure. Finally it struck me that I could give a two in one card all handmade. Voila, a handwritten (calligraphy) Birthday & Mother's Day card was presented to her. Though not really god at it yet, nevertheless mom was happy.
