What does it mean to watch the flowers bloom and fall and watch the clouds roll and relax quietly?

Interpretation: leisurely watching the white clouds roll up and spread out, quietly savoring the time when flowers bloom and fall.

Adapted from Chen Jiru's "Wandering the Window" in Ming Dynasty. The original excerpt is as follows:

Don't lose face, just look at the flowers in front of the court; ? Going or staying is unintentional, and it is easy to follow the clouds.

Interpretation of vernacular Chinese: people can do things as ordinary as flowers, and they can be calm; See if you want to keep the position, it can be unintentional. Teach the world that in this chaotic world, we need to learn to treat everything around us with a normal heart.

Historical story

During Emperor Taizong's reign, Lu Chengqing, an official, was ordered to investigate the responsibility of the sunken ship of grain transportation, and evaluated the performance of grain transportation officials three times, which showed that the officials were humiliated. Later, Lu himself experienced ups and downs and his fate was bumpy. His mood is always as calm as water, and he has not changed the principle of being a man because of the ups and downs.

Live up to your mission and watch the flowers bloom before the court; There is no intention of staying or staying, and the clouds are rolling and the clouds are comfortable. The wind comes to sparse bamboo, and the wind does not leave a sound; The geese were too cold in the pool and left, and no pictures were taken by the pool. Therefore, in a gentleman's heart, when things come, they begin to appear, and when things go, their hearts are empty. Only by overlooking everything can we calm our mind and taste the myriad flavors of life.

The bright eyes in the morning always mean the desolation in the evening, the delicate and charming roses will eventually wither, and the short-lived youth will also become a memory. Flowers bloom and fall several times, and the rainy season, which is gone forever, has finally become a memory of life.

Life is a gathering and parting, and it begins with the first cry when you first arrive, so in the following years, flowers bloom and fall, clouds roll and clouds are smooth, and countless times meet, no matter what form of gathering or parting, eventually, all birds will return to the forest.

Life is a mystery. We never know what will happen next and what will happen. So let's be an excellent actor, devote ourselves wholeheartedly, laugh happily when we should laugh, cry heartily when we should cry, love him vigorously when we should love, and hate him completely when we should hate.

Everyone's life will always experience all kinds of ups and downs, so that we still can't bear to abandon it after a long time. It is these hardships and setbacks that have been sketched into beautiful and wonderful pictures in our lives and become valuable wealth for us to meditate on life in peace.
