To not wonder, worry or be surprised about what is not predicted will happen in life because anything could happen
This proverbial phrase derived from the poem Comus: A Mask Presented at Ludlow Castle written in 1634 by British poet John Milton. He was the first person to coin the phrase "silver lining" in his poem and it became popular in literature during Victoria era around mid 1800s. It is possible that this idom came from the image of the cloud shrouding the sunlight and a light lining appearing on the edge of the cloud. The cloud represents the bad or dark situations that may seem bad but still there's little light on the rear end of the cloud, which symbolizes the positivity in those situations.
