Handwriting in its movement toward destiny, the future, and to others unifies, integrates and organizes the writer’s thoughts, feelings and aspirations with the tangible world of experience and expression. The one letter in the alphabet that connects abstract imagination and thinking with the physical world of practical imagination and expression is the letter “Ff.”
The continuity and bonding power of the letter “Ff” maintains family life, relationships, communities, nations and the whole of creation in harmonious balance.
Learning and creativity are enhanced through the connecting power of the letter “Ff.” In cursive writing you connect to more areas of your brain/mind allowing for clearer thinking with imagination along with strengthening memory functions. Deeper connections to the learning material and knowledge involved can be more strongly impressed within your mind in the process of writing.
In creating the letters of the alphabet, you proceed in a sequential pattern. Through this process you are able to connect with the meaning of the letter and its archetype. This meditative process supports assimilating and integrating the content being learned and expands your heart-mind wisdom and knowledge.
In handwriting the integrity of words is maintained. Words are units of meaning, information, or knowledge. Through the connecting power of the letter “Ff,” the letters are spatially joined, allowing for the spirit of each letter to be included in creating the whole word. Writing a word as a unit supports learning with depth and understanding. Natural intuitive breaks, however, may occur in cursive writing.
In printing, words are fragmented, the continuity is lost, and the power of the word is minimized.
The small letter “f” when designed with balanced upper and lower “loops,” helps you with organization. The archetype of the letter reminds you to use your imagination represented by the “loops” to create order in your mind and in your life. Order is the key environment for learning. This letter influences you to organize your ideas, daily agendas and surroundings.
With a heartfelt spirit, remember the advice of the letter “Ff:” connect to what is culturally enriching; connect to the beauty and heart of the Earth; connect with those who are wise and intelligent in creating an inspiring curriculum for education which encourages orderly, simplified lifestyles and the integration of body, mind and spirit.
