I recently appeared on the Ikigai Podcast, where I had the opportunity to discuss the beauty of Japanese calligraphy and Zen philosophy. One of the key topics we explored was the Zen concept of Nichinichi Kore Kōjitsu, which translates to “Every day is a good day.”
This phrase is not about perfection or an expectation that every day will be flawless. Instead, it encourages us to find meaning or value in each day, regardless of the challenges we may face. It is a reminder to appreciate life as it unfolds, embracing each moment with mindfulness and gratitude.
Calligraphy Artwork: Nichinichi Kore Kōjitsu
To reflect the beauty of this Zen philosophy, I created a calligraphy piece featuring the phrase Nichinichi Kore Kōjitsu. This hanging scroll combines the essence of traditional Japanese aesthetics with a modern touch. Its wide format offers a sense of openness and allows the meaning of the words to breathe, making it a versatile piece that fits seamlessly into contemporary spaces.

Bringing the Message into Everyday Life
Nichinichi Kore Kōjitsu is more than just a phrase; it is a mindset. It invites us to pause, reflect, and look for moments of beauty or lessons in even the most difficult days. This artwork serves as a gentle reminder to appreciate life’s fleeting moments and approach each day with positivity and calm.
If this message resonates with you, the Nichinichi Kore Kōjitsu piece is available on Artsper. I hope it brings peace and inspiration to your daily life, becoming a source of strength in your personal journey.
