I think most people tend to bite into lemons and just accept the bitterness that comes with them. I've been there, many times before. But I have moments when rather than biting into the bitterness, I make lemonade, and whistle while doing so. In reality I can't whistle, but in metaphors I think pretending is allowed.
Life will always give you lemons. I believe the only way to handle them is with joy, not happiness, joy. Happiness is temporary. It can be changed depending on how many lemons you are trying to juggle. Joy cannot be shaken. I can't tell you how to live with joy, how to push aside the stress and worry and live with an inner peace, but I think one step is recognizing what in your life is sugar.
I have some lemons that I was given tonight. But my life has also had an abundance of sugar this past week. The perfect recipe for lemonade! I just want to encourage those of you with lemons, you can do something other than bite into the bitterness. Find the sugar in your life. Let it permeate the lemons. Let it give you peace.
