"MaoBi" is the traditional Chinese writing tool. It's been used for thousands and thousands of years!

I still remember once, I got quite annoyed and said to a helper in the house: "You still get it wrong! Why haven't you understood what I said yet?" I told that person several times and he still didn't do it right. This happened when I was still a teenager. My Grandma heard me and smiled, and told me an old Chinese folk saying: "若要人似你,除非两个你." This means if you want someone totally like you, you need another copy of you. Hmm, I start thinking about this, and I smiled too. Yes that's right, like what she said, there are so many people in the world, how can I expect someone can just have totally the same taste on things, act and think like me. Ok, I think I understood it from then! After that time, I am a lot calmer and I better understand others now; I always try to put myself in the other person's shoes and think before I act, cool!
