The origin of Idioms
It is said in Song Sushi's baohuatang Ji that "although you can see the gratifying things, you will not cherish them even if you take them away. For example, when the clouds pass through the eyes and the birds feel the ears, will they not take them gladly and go away without thinking about them again? " Later, it is used as a metaphor to describe things outside the body without paying attention to them. It also means that things are fleeting, leaving no trace.
