Memory story · made up to help you remember
“Listen to your body! This radical represents the physical vessel we inhabit and the core substance of our very being. When you see it, think of personal health, your unique physical form, and the "meat" or essential substance of a story or object. It brings a sense of grounding, physical presence, and the fundamental nature of the individual self to every character it joins.”
