Lemons… when life hands them to ya…

you decide to quit and curl up in a ball and cry

throw out those lemons and wish for limes to use in your Corona

Everyone out there thought I was going to say the whole lemonade thing… but I’m really not that optimistic.   I’m a reasonable pessimist in disguise.  You have to be these days… it’s the whole if you don’t stand for something… you will fall for anything… right?

I have talked to a lot of people lately whose lives seem to be one giant lemon right now… and it reminds me of something my best friend’s dad used to say – “It’s not what happens to ya that matters….. it’s all about how you handle it.”  That is really huge when you think about it… because life is all about ATTITUDE.

Life has a way of setting up road blocks and brick walls to get in our way and sometimes those obstacles are made of flesh… meaning people… Yes… people around you.  Sometimes… the lemons in your life ARE THE PEOPLE you surround yourself with on a daily basis.

I say… if you want to improve your life… get out there and improve the people you spend all your time with on a day to day basis.  Get around like minded people that want more from life— whether that is religion, money, success, love, etc… whatever you want… hang around with people that want what you want and you life will turn around magically…. it’s all about how you look at the things happening around you….

So, what the hell are ya gonna do with all those lemons?  I don’t know… make some lemonade… hahahaha
