Happiness never comes in pairs, and misfortune never rains but it pours, which expresses a pessimistic idea, while happiness never comes in pairs until now, and misfortune never rains but it pours, which yesterday expressed a kind of beautiful hope.

1. It never rains but it pours. It means that good things don't come in succession, but disasters will follow. Remind people to be careful when they encounter bad things, or more bad things will come.

2. There is no double blessing until today, but it never rains but it pours yesterday. It's a fearless attitude. Good things rarely come twice in a row, but they come twice today. Bad things often come one after another, but they are all over and never come again.

Extended information:

(1) There is no double blessing, but it never rains but it pours from the Ming Dynasty. Shi Naian's "The Complete Biography of the Water Margin" comes back to the 37th chapter: "After listening to Song Jiang, he decided that two workers said," But it is bitter! It is the double blessing that never rains but it pours. "

(2) In Song Dynasty, people in the village often secretly took the couplets written by Su Dongpo and put them on their doorways, so Su Dongpo came up with a way. He first wrote only "happiness" and "misfortune" on the couplets, and then added a few words on New Year's Eve, which became "happiness till now, yesterday's misfortune line," and bad luck turned into auspicious words.

(3) Therefore, the meanings of these two sentences are completely different, even opposite; Happiness, the focus of disasters is a series of disasters, happiness is not double until now, but it never rains but it pours. Yesterday's trip expressed more hope for a better future.
