Ancient people turned sleep into a poetic way of living.
小潘, did you read this article? Even the way ancient people slept felt romantic.
I did! They carved poems onto pillows, right? That’s so unique.
Yes—those are called porcelain pillows. They have poems on them; reading them before bed calms your mind.
So even sleeping can be this beautiful. I used to think a pillow was only for sleeping.
Ancient people loved making life poetic—for example, placing paintings by the bed, like traveling through landscapes.
That feeling is wonderful. I also want to put a painting in my room so I can relax more before sleep.
You should try it. Nowadays we also talk about a “bedtime ritual,” like reading a page or lighting some aromatherapy.
I get it now. Romance isn’t about expensive things—it’s a mood. Ancient people really knew how to live!
