annoying sayings
When people say," Everything happens for a reason"
Something in me says, "no"
I have not seen bad things happen to people that brings about any good outcome that the person themselves didn't create. The saying seems to imply that by grand design this happened so that something better may transpire.
I think bad things happen just because they do. I think good things happen when the intergrity of the human spirit presses onward to create something better.
Whenever I hear that saying something just sticks in my craw. I know that it is said with the best intentions but it just annoys me.
What are the sayings that peeve you and why?
