Connections

You can talk with someone for years, everyday, and still, it won't mean as much as what you can have when you sit in front of someone, not saying a word, yet you feel that person with your heart, you feel like you have known the person for forever.... connections are made with the heart, not the tongue.  C. JoyBell C.

I really hope you have relationships that are like today's quote.  We all have those relationships that we talk to people every single day but hopefully we all have those relationships where we don't have to talk to someone everyday but our hearts are knit together.  Have you ever met someone that your heart is instantly connected to without much conversation?  I hope you have.  Conversation is sometimes not necessary when hearts connect without words.  I have those relationships and I treasure them and they enrich my life.  I hope you have connections that enrich your heart and life.

More bang for your buck

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment. 

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.
