"Joy" Japanese calligraphy



 "" (ki, yorokobu). It is translated as like, love, enjoy, joyful thing, etc.
 This character is written by Kanzi,
Regular script.

 Etymology : Ideogrammic compound
 壴 (drum)  +  口 (mouth)

 The state to be pleased that people play music.



 This character has very lucky meanings in the Orient.

 Meeting with all of my followers you.
 And recognizing the world that I do not know.
 Sharing the world that I do not know with the friends.
 It is my "Joy".


 Infinite "Joy"  Each person is walking toward it...

 I hope that you arrive at there.
