I'm surprised it isn't already replaced by text shorthand and emoji speak.

There is something so soothing to me about writing; I’ve always just enjoyed the heck out of it.  Calligraphy is such a beautiful art, and I’m so glad there are people keeping it alive.  I have a ton of calligraphy videos saved on YouTube; I could watch people write all day lol.  I hate that we’re losing cursive in schools; it was one of my favorite parts lol.

Thanks, Luna... I agree!!!
I was so taken aback...
It's usually pretty but last night I caught it at just the perfect time, it seems.

That is a lovely, serene image, Blue. I love the fusion of colors and the siloutted trees enhance the violet shades.

Writing is very fluid and reminds me of the gentle flow of the Universe through our thoughts. I am very interested in learning Korean in the traditional form of bamboo brush and ink and rice paper.

I am teaching my grandson cursive and exposing him to videos as well. His school taught him the cursive letters; however, that's where they stopped. It's very sad.

Ohhh me too!! I'm such a sucker for that 'bruised' colored sunset ...
Thank you ☺
-I took a picture about 5 minutes later and it's completely different, in all yellows and oranges... I should post it. The difference is just amazing!

Holy heck. It looks like it is straight out of a science fiction movie. That itself could inspire a poem.

Thanks. I wished I had blown out the candle in the background for complete darkness!

“ Inosculation is a natural phenomenon in which trunks, branches or roots of two trees grow together. It is biologically similar to grafting and such trees are referred to in forestry as gemels, from the Latin word meaning ‘a pair’. “

I have NEVER seen anything like THAT in my entire life; truly something to go out on a limb and ruminate on.
