I'm having a tough time rephrasing cliches. We are supposed to rephrase these to be a bit more creative and transform them into our own unique message, using figurative language, rhetorical devices, etc. Basically, saying the same thing but not using cliches. I just can't come up with creative ways to rephrase 'em. Any help is appreciated.
What a lovely day it is.
All the money in the world can't make the pain go away.
We had become best friends.
My Aunt Lucy acts as tough as nails.
Chasing after my dreams seems easier said than done.

Also, I should have said they need to be more...I don't know how to say it... but not like changing "beautiful" to nice. They are supposed to have rhetorical devices in them and be deep. This is where I'm running into problems.

It really is beautiful outside today.
Just because you have a lot of money, doesn't mean that you are not going to have any problems.
By the end of the trip, we were not only friends, we were inseparable.
My Aunt Lucy is strong emotionally, physically, etc.
I've always known that I am able to attain my aspirations, but I never knew how hard it would be.

THE SUN IS SHINING, THE BIRDS ARE SINGING, A GENTLE BREEZE STIRS THE AIR, ...WHAT COULD BE BETTER?
All the money in the world can't make the pain go away.
MY HEART ACHES LIKE THE FABRIC OF MY SOUL HAD BEEN RIPPED APART, WITH THE SORRY THREADS LEFT FORLORN AND HOPELESSLY WAVING AFTER EACH OTHER.

MY AUNT LUCY COULD MAKE A DRILL SERGEANT CRY LIKE A SCHOOL GIRL (BUT, SHE THROWS A GREAT TEA PARTY!)
Chasing after my dreams seems easier said than done.
THE WATERS SEEMED SO CALM BEFORE I JUMPED IN AND LEARNED, FIRST HAND, ABOUT CURRENTS, AND RAPIDS AND ROCKS AND WHO KNOWS WHAT YET LIES AROUND THE BEND.

The pain was too heavy for money or any material item to heal.
We were the closest amigos on earth.

Following my dreams is not an easy task to fulfill.
