We all know the old saying, “When Life hands you Lemons, make Lemonade!” Well I say don’t stop there, make Lemon Bars, cookies even, make that sourness even sweeter. Easier said than done most of the time. Why is it that we are going through life and BANG! not only do you get a lemon but you were given the whole darn tree?
You can look at any situation and after you are done sucking on that sourness, you eventually try to either learn from it, alter your plans which may end up for the best in the long run, or just end up with that funny looking “I just sucked on a sour lemon” face.
I do try to do the learning from it or the altering (which really does end up a lot of time better). Sometime though I am stuck with that face for awhile, but you know what I learned? Being upset, complaining about it to no end, does not change it. You are the only one who can. So take those lemons, add some sugar and move on…don’t worry more lemons are heading your way, but so are some blessings. Just take it one day at a time.
