Hey, I am looking positive cliche sayings. You know, like, 'there's always a silver lining' or 'there's always sunshine after the rain'. If you can think of some, please post them.

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Go ladies and gents....YOUR TURNS.

What about?

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but don't pick your friends nose.

A Bird in the hand is worth two in the Bush. (Do you think they were referring to Sen Bird?)

There's always seeing the glass as half full rather than half empty.

And here's a great 'silver lining' song.

Look for the silver lining When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember somewhere the sun is shining, And so the right thing to do is make it shine for you.
A heart full of joy and gladnesss will always banish sadness and strife
So always look for the silver lining, And try to find the sunny side of life.

Then there's 'walking on the sunny side of the street' and 'Everytime it rains it rains pennies from heaven' and 'Keep your sunny side up' (you know, be like two fried eggs.....)

All old songs. :o)

Hope springs eternal.

Keep a stiff upper lip.

Live and let live.

Make hay when the sun shines.

Take the bull by the horns.

Make the best of a bad bargain.

Stick to your guns.

Put a good face on it.

Roll with the punches.

Turn over a new leaf.

There's light at the end of the tunnel.

One of my favorites deals with children, and this picture explains it perfectly:

"A person is a person, no matter how small."- Dr. Seuss
