Don’t you just love his style? It makes me wonder about the person behind the callgraphy brush.

Let me tell you a story. It is a thunderstorm. This son knew he mother was afraid of thunderstorms. Even after death, he would come to the grave and provide comfort to his mother during a thunderstorm. Some of you might say this story is outdated but the basic principle is still the same today. We must be filial.
Honor thy father and mother.

Well by accident I am the first blogger this time…
I really like to give a comment on the filial son and his mother who was afraid of thunderstorms….
I personally think that this story will never be outdated.
this morning I saw a middle aged man pushing his old father sitting a wheel chair down a street in Miri. And I imagined his father pushing him in his baby trolley more than 40 years ago…Changing roles but love must never change. We have our duties to each other.
Can I send your picture to my children?
BB:Yes, of course. I have offered u use of my pics before. This pic was actually a small mural at the new temple in Sibu..the Jade Dragon
God bless.
i have heard bout that allegory before…
i wonder how many of us would do that now…
BB: i dont know how many ppl would but we all should
It writes how happy we are when we have the visit of a friend from a place far away..
????????????
BB:thanks, i am sorry my blog doesnt write Chinese. i wonder if i can do something abt that. anybody has any idea?
yeah, i enjoy seeing those caligraphy artwork too.. i always admire how they could have such handsome writing, which i can never master.. i remember always getting a C for my calligraphy work in school, hahahaha~~
I used to enter calligraphy competition in my primary school. since then, I never write again. Think I am just too lazy.
Wow. That’s an extreme example of filial piety.
BengBeng : Chinese Calligraphy is beautiful.
I love the story about the thunderstorm bro. It shows that we need to be filial to our parents all the time.
