KEEP YOUR CHIN UP

In the past few weeks or few days, it seems like my social media has been flooded with just negative and depressing news. I think mostly about politics. Do you feel the same? It's hard to get away from it.

Aside from everything going on politically in our world today, we can all agree that life is not always perfect. No matter how much money you make, how many friends you have or how great your job is, we all go through ups and downs . Life is life. We must deal with hardships to be stronger, to recognize our strengths and to appreciate the beauty in life. But it's not always easy to push through difficult times.

An appropriate English expression is to "keep your chin up!" This means to remain positive and cheerful during hard times. Keep your chin up, your head high, look ahead and keep on going with a smile! Don't give up. This expression is commonly used as an encouragement to keep going.

If you have a friend today who is feeling down, tell them to "chin up" and fight through the bad days!

And lastly, to my followers from all around the world, you're always welcome here at The English Student! Learning is about sharing, listening and being open to ideas. We may not always agree, but we respect each other. Thanks for always doing that with me. Much love to you all and remember to keep your chin up!
