BUSTING CLICHES<br />
by Mahevash Shaikh<br />
Where there’s a will, there’s a way<br />
Blood is thicker than water<br />
Time heals all wounds<br />
Who hasn’t grown up with clichés?<br />
Clichés have been around forever and everybody uses them from<br />
time to time. In fact, we learn a lot of them at English class in the<br />
form of proverbs and sayings. And that’s a good thing, because a lot<br />
of clichés are power-packed with wise advice and rules to live by.<br />
However, trouble brews when they are generalized, taken literally or<br />
misinterpreted due to popular notion. These overused statements<br />
then become limiting beliefs that negatively influence our thoughts,<br />
choices and decisions...<br />
