An Original Maxim

Today I thought out an original maxim by chance. That is "Good handwriting can make ordinary paper beautiful."

Because I forgot to bring my notebook for taking notes in the class of Adaptive Control, I have to write on my letterheads. Although taking notes in letterheads may be too luxurious, it looked better than writing on the paper for making manuscrīpt. At that time, I suddenly thought of a classmate in primary school, whose name is Zhou Huaiqin. He has talent in calligraphy. His handwriting was so wonderful and his notebooks and homework always exhibited in our class. We did our homework in the same kind of notebooks, but his notebooks were so different. We hold his notebooks in our hands carefully and were afraid of damaging his notebooks by our carefulness.

When you write beautiful characters on an ordinary paper, the paper would become beautiful. In contrast, if we put ugly characters or brushworks on a fine paper, it would make the paper looked sick. The texture of paper is just like our appearance, the handwriting is our self-cultivation. Somebody looks beautiful, somebody looks normal. But good manner and self-cultivation can make normal person attractive. On the contrary, if beautiful person do not care about his self-cultivation, he can not make anybody feel well.
