致其他人：你手中握着那根绳索。

孤 (gū)
别让葬礼成你唯一的相聚
在这个常常“太晚”才相聚的时代，
这句话提醒我们：不要让遗憾与孤独同行。
画面中，“孤”字孤独地伫立于纸上，
下方是一句轻声的劝勉：珍惜仍能相聚的时光。
此文字与画作皆出自我手，
不求华饰，但求启人深思。

(Poster / Calligraphy Artwork Placeholder)
孤 (gū) — Lonely
Don’t let the funeral be your only reunion.
In an age when we wait too long, when reunions come only at farewells, this phrase whispers:
Don’t let regret and loneliness walk hand in hand.
The character “孤” stands alone at the top of the poster: a minimalist and melancholy presence.
Below it, a quiet call to cherish time together while we can.
This phrase and artwork were both created by hand,
not for embellishment, but for reflection.
