When Life Gives You Lemons....

So you’ve got a little bit of happiness and success through all your years of hard work. You have your nice big house,you’re wealthy,you’ve got everything you ever wanted. Basking in the glory of it all,feeling on top of the world. Unstoppable. But,oh,no...LIFE! And it’s got a cute little brown weave basket in its hand. You see a little smidge of yellow from a distance. You suddenly realize... “Oh,no! It’s LEMONS!!” You’ve got it all together until life throws you lemons. Sometimes the biggest ones it can find and it’ll take ‘em and just toss ‘em at you like the best umpire in baseball. A real SOB life can be. Hell,a pain in the ass,a buzzkill,a killjoy,the most heaviest weight of all weights in a gym you could ever life and carry. It even puts even mooooooooore weight on you just to give you a hard time and make you wanna drop as fast as a snap of your finger. It makes you through hardships,it kicks you down and down some more and it’ll leave a lotta sand it’s kicked in your face. It’s ok to cry and scream and shout. GET IT ALL OUT!! But,the question (to yourself) is: do you really wanna do that for the rest of your life? Throughout all that pain and agony does come good times and great memories. I’m not saying life is all sunshine and rainbows. IT’S NOT! I’m not saying it’s an easy road either. I’m saying when life starts sucker punching you,you can let it keep beating you down and stay down or you can get up,dust yourself off and fight back. I’m other words,kick life’s ass or you let life kick your ass. You’re giving life the “ok” to keep letting life bully you and push you around if you keep letting it. But if you keep getting back up,you’re showing it your strength and your courage. You’re telling life “You can’t beat me. I got this.”. Life is like one of those bullies you have to deal with or witness from kindergarten to high school. They’ll humiliate you and treat you like dirt if you let them. But,try not to think of the hard times they gave you. Think of your outcome and how you overcame that instead. Think of life as one of one of your bullies and compare that to how you made it through and got past all those bullies. So again, the choice is yours. When life gives you lemons,you can let them stay as lemons or you can take them and make lemonade. What’s your decision? Lemons will only stay lemons if you let them. But,if you take squeeze them and keep squeezing them,you’ll get all the lemonade you want. You’ve just gotta be strong enough to handle the sourness to get the sweetness. That means it’ll be tough to get to the other side where the grass is greenerbut it’ll be worth it when you get and/or have what you work hard for. You can pray and hope for it as well,but you have to play your part too. You have to work hard for what you want,even if it means breaking sweats 24/7, 9 to 5, maybe even 6 days a week. So,when life gives you lemons,remember these 2 options: a basket of lemons or lemonade. The choice is yours.
