Integrating the Spirals 
A truly graceful and thoughtful piece 🌿✨.
Your exploration of Daoist philosophy through the lens of calligraphy gives the ancient proverb “Modesty brings …” such depth and resonance.

It’s both spiritually uplifting and intellectually enriching, reminding readers that timeless wisdom still speaks powerfully to our modern struggles.

You’re most welcome. I love studying more things calligraphy and the Eastern arts and philosophies. We also watch a LOT of Asian cooking videos on YouTube. (Yum!)
