时光煮雨人走茶凉
[shí guāng zhŭ yŭ rén zŏu chá liáng]
'Time Boils Rain, People Depart, Tea Cools' Depicts a sense of impermanence and change. Just as tea gradually cools over time, people come and go in our lives. Time moves forward, bringing changes to everything including weather ('cooking' rain evokes imagery of how time affects surroundings) and relationships—once warm connections may cool with distance and passing days.
