陋室铭 Epigraph on my Humble Abode with a Jinhao Fountain Pen
Singapore has opened up post-pandemic, so the shop is re-opened for business! Sorry for the long wait!
Experimenting with my new Jinhao pen model 450-9 (this particular model is called “乌云” meaning "Dark Clouds"). It has a bent nib and I am using a shimmery peacock green ink with gold powder.
The calligraphy(yes, I know I need moar practice) is an excerpt from 陋室铭 (Epigraph on my Humble Abode) by Liu Yuxi 刘禹锡 (Tang dynasty).
山不在高，有仙则名。 水不在深，有龙则灵。（rough translation of mine)
A mountain needn't be high;
It is famous so long as there is an immortal on it.
The waters needn't be deep;
It has spiritual powers so long as there is a dragon in them.

Hello
I just finished inscribing a passage from the "陋室铭" (Loushi Ming) on a piece of paper for my humble abode. My trusty Jinhao fountain pen danced across the surface, leaving behind characters that speak to the value of inner peace and contentment, regardless of outward circumstances. It's a reminder to myself that true riches lie not in material possessions, but in the simplicity of a life filled with nursing essay services purpose and integrity.

A thoughtful epigraph on your humble abode, written with a Jinhao fountain pen, can serve as a beautiful reminder of life's fleeting nature. Whether it's a quote that inspires, reflects your values, or simply adds character to your space, the elegant strokes of a fountain pen elevate the sentiment. This could be particularly meaningful when paired with something like the 4000 weeks poster, which reminds us of the finite amount of time we have in life. Displaying both in your home could serve as a daily prompt to live purposefully, cherishing each of those weeks.
