I agree with your thoughts here, entirely. And essentially use language the same way as you. Trying for the creative, yet resorting to the "comfort" of cliche when it really does bring in the point most efficiently.
Why not use them on the occasion they hone right in to where you're going? And then from there you can expand as needed.
Yes! That aside they belong to a fascinating branch of language - sayings, snippets of wisdom, well known quotations… I find the history of them interesting.
Susan, I love reading your messages. I am past the point in my career where I have to "have" your information to get better. I am in the season where I "enjoy" improving and sharing with to those who matter to me, why learning to communicate our thoughts and ideas to others, is one of the most important gifts God can give us. You are one of those who make lives better for those who seek it.
Sometimes cliches hit the nail on the head.
You’ve taken the words straight out of my mouth. :-)
You stole my line!
