Xiaoman
It is the eighth of the 24 solar terms
It is also the second solar term of summer
During the small man, everything thrived
It's the beginning of summer
During this period
Heavy rains and frequent precipitation in the south
As the folk proverb goes, "small full and small, the rivers are gradually full"
So
The small man in the south refers to the fullness of the rain

And in the northern regions
There is less rain during the small full solar term
There is not even rain
Therefore, this "full" does not refer to precipitation
Rather, it refers to the fullness of the wheat
Before and after Xiaoman
The grains of the summer crops begin to fill
But it is not yet fully mature
It is the time when it is about to be ripe and not yet ripe
Therefore, it is called "Xiaoman"

Xiaoman is both the stage of crop growth
It's also a just right state of life
i.e. "small enough to be full"
It's one of a kind
There is room and a delicate state of anticipation
It is a balance between great fulfillment and dissatisfaction
It is also the pursuit of progress, never complacent attitude to life

Strive to go up at the same time
You can also maintain your love for life
and the possible losses that can arise after excessive complacency
so-called
"The moon is full of profit and loss, the water is overflowing, full of losses, and the humble benefits"
Xiaoman's wisdom
It is a philosophy of our ancients
It tells us
The development of anything should be done in moderation
Daman is not at its best
Excessive will lead to decline

We have to keep evolving
