wind

it's an ,ill `wind (that blows nobody any good)
(saying 諺) few things are so bad that they don't offer some good to sb

You can describe an unfortunate event as an ill wind if someone benefits from it.

When you get your second wind, you become able to continue doing something difficult or energetic after you have been tired or out of breath.

take the wind out of sb's sails informal
to make someone lose their confidence, especially by saying or doing something unexpected

see which way the wind is blowing
to find out what the situation is before you do something or make a decision

sth is in the wind
used to say that something is happening or going to happen, but the details are not clear
