Anyway, don't worry because I'll try to explain a bit about this idiomatic expression for you.

The expression means "encounter someone who can match or outdo in some activity, talent, etc."  

The idiom is used when, for example, you think you know or have enough abilities to accomplish something, and, all of a sudden

One of the very creative child in my class always expect to praised by the word 'awesome'. If the teachers says 'excellent' or 'well done', he turned around and asks 'is it not awesome?'. He inspired me to write this blog.

To fill our life full of pleasure and vitreous deed.

Drag me back to the right path when I go stray
Taking no interest in duties and getting lazy to pray

I think there isn't any person persons in the world who doesn't enjoy sweets, chocolates or ice creams. Honestly even a bite of any sweets sweet can cheer me up. As a big fan of it, there isn't any taste like sweets. Trying any sweets sweet in the coffee shops and specially with close friends can be so delighting.

Proverbs are well-known sayings and informative statements among the people of every nation. Proverbs usually date back to old days. They have handed out from one generation to another with the purpose of conveying some facts.
