Idiom: Tomorrow's another day

Your friend's been desperately looking for a job. Since he got fired from his previous job, the one he was so passionate about, he's had a hard time trying to get another one. Today, when you were in the streets you happened to bump into him and he was just about to do an interview in a big company. You were very happy for hearing that and said he should call you right after he's finished with the interview to let you know how it was.

When you get home, you receive a call from him sounding very depressed. He says the interviewer didn't even bother to give him some hope.They said he wasn't the type they were looking for and therefore that was one more job opportunity he wouldn't be getting. In the attempt to calm him down, you tell him: Tomorrow's another day. Don't worry!

You might think that what you just said was a little obvious because, after all, everybody knows tomorrow's always another day. But as an expression, it means that things might turn out better or there might be another opportunity in the future. What you actually meant was that your friend will wake up in the next morning and have a whole new chance to chase around after as many interviews as he wants. So there's no reason to be discouraged.

  1. My brother and his girlfriend broke up yesterday, and he got really sad, and was crying all over the bed. But I just told him: Tomorrow is another day bro.
