What's for you, won't go by you.
I think this might actually be a Scottish phrase. It means don't spend too much time worrying about something because if fate intends you to have it then you will.
Personally I think it is trite bollocks.
What phrase do you hear that resonates with you or pisses you off? |

Ah see I kind of like this phrase. One of my friends lives by it. I like to think Ryan won't pass me by.
Ones I hate?
"Smile, it might never happen"
" We're all the same height laid down!"

Oh I could have a very interesting conversation/debate with you about this. I support that sentiment 100%. Everything happens for a reason and have never been shown otherwise. Would be very interested in your reasoning and your perspective. |

I hate that.
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger - I mean, sometimes. Other times, it leaves you with trauma.

Divorce certainly does  "
Did it kill you, though? You must be stronger! |

Trauma is trauma when you are in it. growth comes from stepping out of it and making/having different choices I would argue you stand to gain. |

agree completely... I just don't like the idea of people out there thinking that trauma is permanent or letting it define them. Takes some self reflection, And often a fresh perspective... but its all doable. |

Absolutely. For me, the flip side is if you are struggling, hearing "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is liable to makes you feel worse. |

Whenever I'm feeling down about my particular situation, my tells me "things don't stay the same forever". It pisses me right off because I know she thinks it's helpful but thinking it might be better in future doesn't help me feel better in the present |

I think I live by the what's for me won't pass me by saying. It's the straw I cling too  I do think that what we may want isn't the same as 'what's for us', so plenty is passing me by and it's a bastard to wave it on
I hate the saying we just need to learn resilience when life is kicking is in the bollocks. We arent learning any resilience just drowning instead. |
