Origin

The phrase is composed of four characters: 心, 滿, 意, and 足. The character 意 refers to wish, desire, or intention, and 足 means foot.

In the formation of the character 滿, the component 水 (water) serves as the semantic element, and the component 㒼 (equal; equivalent) serves as the phonetic element.
