Also... if you really want a script similar to this.. look to Japanese and
Korean.
Japanese has a syllabary but still uses larges amount of borrowed Chinese
symbols.
Korean has an alphabet, but in the south they still use Chinese glyphs for
names and such.

If its owner fails to control it, it will cut him
Yes, pride is

We think a flower on a cliff is beautiful
because we stop our feet at the cliff's edge,
unable to step out into the sky
like that fearless flower.
