History teach us a lot .

Our cafe had a lecture on "ancient letters" last night.
The lecturer and his daughter visited the cafe a couple of months ago. He introduced himself as a scholar of ancient Chinese characters.

I love history. Then "ancient" sounds very attractive to me.
Since I had heard he had some lecture class,I dreamed to have the class someday right here at our cafe.
And the dream come true.

The letter of the picture means "learn."
The top part is the symbol of feather and the bottom part is white sunlight.
The ancient letter of "learn" originated in "the birds." The baby bird learn how to fly from its parents birds.
The baby bird practice flying over and over.
And you see white soft feather(down) of the baby bird.Or baby have pure white heart.
This is how the letter became "learn."


We had 17 classmates. The class begun 7pm then we enjoy the lecture full of two hours.
The class already be scheduled for next two months.
