This autumn, a 'ginkgo umbrella' has given concrete expression to the aesthetics of life and provided a vivid lesson for public environmental aesthetic education. Recently, on the campus of Dalian Foreign Studies University, the "Ginkgo Umbrella" created by cleaning ladies using fallen ginkgo leaves has become popular on social media. The falling leaves of ginkgo trees, which was originally an ordinary autumn scenery, have become a unique artwork in their hands. The shapes of smiling faces, stars, hearts, and umbrellas formed by fallen leaves of ginkgo trees not only decorate the campus, but also inadvertently touch the longing for beauty in countless people's hearts. The "Ginkgo Umbrella" is a projection of love for life, and it quietly reveals that the "highest level of romance" is actually hidden in daily life. The inspiration of the "Ginkgo Umbrella" has stimulated the creative desire of netizens, and many people immediately posted their fallen leaf artworks. Why do people love autumn when they make bouquets and wind chimes from fallen leaves picked up by themselves, make ginkgo leaf cloaks and hats for children, take fallen leaves home and write their expectations in books? The highly praised answer online is that autumn makes people romantic. The falling ginkgo leaves give everyone the opportunity to approach and create beauty. Why can fallen leaf art evoke such widespread emotional resonance? At present, the pressure of work and life makes many people feel tired and exhausted, and people need to discover and create "small joys" from their daily lives even more. The sunset on the way to work, the birds chirping in the park on weekends, and the fallen leaves that can be picked up as soon as you bend down, these unexpected gifts from nature are the romantic nourishment and self-sufficiency that people draw from their daily lives. They are becoming an important spiritual practice for more and more people to stabilize their inner order and regain a sense of control over their lives. In response to the public's aesthetic and spiritual needs, many places such as Henan and Shandong have implemented the "slow sweeping of fallen leaves" policy. For the road sections with "slow sweeping of fallen leaves", a flexible mode of "picking up and cleaning" is adopted, focusing on cleaning up household waste, dead branches and leaves within the road sections, but preserving the fallen leaf landscape to the greatest extent possible. The golden fallen leaves cover the road, becoming a beautiful scenery line in the city and allowing people to briefly 'settle' in the romance of autumn. In the past period of time, due to urban governance requirements, some cities excessively pursued "uniformity" and "smoothness as new", and fallen leaves were seen as affecting the appearance of the city, hindering traffic, and requiring immediate cleaning. Although this governance approach has achieved the "cleanliness" of urban streets, it has invisibly stripped away the natural imprint of seasonal circulation and weakened the space for citizens to engage in dialogue with nature. Nowadays, designating specific areas and time periods, while ensuring traffic safety and the normal life of citizens, allows fallen leaves to temporarily remain, which is not only a respect for natural rhythms, but also contains a humanistic shift in urban governance ideas. This' Ginkgo Umbrella 'is the most gentle footnote in autumn, reflecting everyone's never extinguished desire to create beauty and love life. When cities learn to let a fallen leaf "stay", when busy souls are willing to look back for a touch of autumn, the two-way pursuit of urban governance and people's needs will eventually bring "poetic dwelling" into reality.
