Simple Truths Cliches are so cliche right? Or sometimes even redundant.....that is up until my perception of them has been recently changed. That they're not just "cliches" but rather Simple Truths . The very  simple truths   that sustains us in the face of adversity yet we too often tend to forget and need to be reminded of. So, here it is, today I boldly dare to be "cliche" & remind you to:  "be kind to yourself", "take it a day at a time, better yet a thought/moment at a time", "exhale", "do the right thing", "treat others the way you would want to be treated", "look on the bright side", "this too shall pass", "where there's a will there's a way", "you are enough", "you are worthy", "beauty comes from within", "time heals all", "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", "never give up", "...

That's the Silver Lining ! And there will always be a Silver Lining , because a cloud simply can't exist withou...
