Gaman Keychain

This is a simple keychain that spells GAMAN.

GAMAN is a Japanese term of Zen Buddhist origin which means "enduring the seemingly unbearable with patience and dignity".

It's a mindset of the Japanese people and while I know it can have "bad" consequences if perpetrated to the extreme, I think this is hardly the case for western people.

So I designed this for the students of my karate club that endured this hard period and kept training (mostly online) during the pandemic, as a token of gratitude and a reminder that they are on top of things and can endure this bad situation.

I decided to share this not for the model quality, but because maybe it can be of inspiration/amusement/anything to anyone else.
