"Young man, your duty is to level the land, not to worry about time. What you did in March and April will have an answer in August and September. "

? -The Book of Time

The Book of Time is probably the most enjoyable book I have read recently. First of all, I fell in love with it because of the pictures in the book, the old tree I like very much, simplicity, frankness, loveliness and the charm of Feng Zikai. I often see his paintings on the official WeChat account, accompanied by poems or simple philosophical sentences, telling the truth. The Book of Time contains 24 traditional solar terms in China. At the beginning of each solar term, there is a painting and a poem that is very suitable for this occasion. A roll in your hand is pleasing to the eye, and the days pass slowly.

Solar terms are the treasures of Chinese civilization. Every solar term, the sun has a fixed ecliptic position, which determines the climate characteristics of that solar term. China is an agricultural society. Each solar term condenses many proverbs related to climate and farming. Through years of accumulated observation, the ancestors summed up every solar term and finally became a unique culture. Spring, summer, autumn and winter, each solar term has its own phenology. According to the order of solar terms in the book, we use ancient poems to point out topics, with illustrations of corresponding solar terms, extending from the basic introduction of each solar term to agricultural life, and then telling the allusions related to ancient solar terms and the natural expression of each climate, from which we can learn a lot of life philosophy.

"From solar terms to solar terms, it is still an important question for people to survive: Have we mastered the solar terms of time? Have we grasped the node of life? When you look back, are you worth keeping the solar terms of life in heaven and earth? "

"The attitude of real moral solar terms is: people have skills, if any; Man is sacred and his heart is kind. "

"I know what it is, but I don't know why. I know what it is and I don't know what it is. "

"A gentleman should distinguish things from others, be cautious in words and deeds, and reflect on convergence in order to find a proper position in the ever-changing time and space."

"Summer insects can't talk about ice, and southerners can't talk about frost."

The meaning of "wheat awn, rice awn, comfortable, extremely uneasy. It is an unfortunate experience to encounter thorns in sweating, but this is the life of farmers and a fate. Let's look at the survival experience of this farmer today, or we can say that suffering is the only way in life. The only thing we need to remember is whether we are worthy of these sufferings. "

Some sentences may be read at ordinary times, but today they really touched me. According to the order of each solar term written in the book, follow the author to feel and taste the difference of each solar term slowly, and think of Holdrin's famous saying quoted by Heidegger: "Life is full of achievements, but we must live in this land poetically." Learn to rejoice in the "rose of time" like a poet and reap "time is food"

The book of time is a book that records time stories, bears the profound culture of the Chinese nation, and needs time to quietly taste. It is really a kind of happiness to feel the romance, fluidity and splendor of time in this complicated and helpless world, and to embrace the richness and perfection of life in plain clothes and vegetables. When you really do things well, you will naturally feel proud. This is not narcissism, it's called confidence. Reading makes people confident but not persistent, with good books and peace of mind.
