Calligrapher’s note:

For over a year I have pondered how to shape this work,
as though I were studying the ancient classics.
To read the classics is itself a kind of wandering;
to wander thus is itself a way of reading.
Those who are familiar with the classics will understand.
As for me, I raise my cup and invite you to join.
