End of Heat， the 14th solar term among the twenty－four solar terms， means＂the end of the hot summer＂． It implies that with each autumn rain， the coldness intensifies． After the pattering rain， the scorching sun no longer burns， cicadas no longer chirp， the passionate midsummer fades away gradually， and the feeling of autumn becomes stronger and stronger．＂Looking at the withered lotus in the pond， longing for the fragrance of osmanthus on the tree．＂
In the early autumn， the sky is high and the clouds are pale． This solar term marks the end of the sweltering and unbearable weather． However， the receding of the summer heat is a gradual process． It doesn＇t mean it becomes cool immediately after the heat drops． The lingering influence of the＂Autumn Tiger＂ should not be underestimated． After End of Heat， the weather is very cool in the morning and evening， and the temperature difference between day and night increases， making people feel a distinct＂autumn＂ flavor．
Time brings the fragrance of rice flowers， which is the most reassuring scent． At this time， the middle－season rice ripens and cotton bolls open． Suddenly， the cool breeze gradually rises， and eventually there is a bumper harvest of all grains． These are all gifts that this solar term brings to the world． By the time of End of Heat， more than half of the year has passed． Every flower and every scene has its ups and downs． Isn＇t life the same？ Instead of sighing for the passing time， it＇s better to resolutely engage in the present and live each day seriously．
處暑，是二十四節(jié)氣中的第14個(gè)節(jié)氣，處暑，即為“出暑”，意味著一場秋雨一場寒。在淅淅瀝瀝的雨水過后，炎陽不再炙烤，蟬兒不再鳴叫，熱情的盛夏漸行漸遠(yuǎn)，秋天的感覺愈來愈濃。“望一池荷花殘，盼一樹桂花香。”
初秋時(shí)節(jié)，天高云淡，這一節(jié)氣，已到了酷熱難熬的天氣的尾聲。但暑熱消退是一個(gè)緩慢的過程，并不是暑氣下降馬上就涼爽了，秋老虎的余威不容小覷。處暑后早晚天氣十分的涼快，晝夜溫差增大，會讓人覺得有明顯的“秋”味了。
時(shí)光帶來了稻花香，這是最有安全感的香味，此時(shí)中稻成熟，棉花吐絮。忽而涼風(fēng)漸起，終有五谷豐登，都是這個(gè)節(jié)氣帶回人間的禮物，時(shí)至處暑，一年已過大半，一花一景都有枯有榮，人生何嘗不是如此，與其為消盡的時(shí)光嘆息，不如果斷地投入當(dāng)下，認(rèn)真過好每一天。
