"Don't be unhappy that your boyfriend broke up with you - every cloud has a silver lining". What does this idiom mean?
Every cloud has a silver lining means that you should never feel hopeless because difficult times always lead to better days. Difficult times are like dark clouds that pass overhead and block the sun.
When we look more closely at the edges of every cloud we can see the sun shining there like a silver lining.
