When Life Happens

What do you do when life happens?

I found this treasure on Facebook (I think) this week, and the moment I saw it, I fell in love. Coming from a girl who LOVES chocolate, I would love life to hand me some chocolate. But I got thinking as well, if life handed you chocolate, it would be easier to handle life's trails. You'd just break a piece off and plop it in your mouth and carry on for a few hours until it's hard and you break another piece off. It would be too easy, and honestly, I don't think I would learn anything from it?! Like really, I would never progress and the only thing I would learn is how to demand chocolate, and no one likes to be around people who are demanding.




Sometimes in life, this is how I feel, like it just stinks and nothings going my way. I want the whole world to understand why I'm feeling that way, why I'm doing the things I'm doing, or why I just want to crawl into bed for the next day to pass and not have to talk to anyone or do anything. In other words "squirt life in the eye".

Then there is this approach to life, making lemonade when life gives you lemons.

Taking what life gives you and making do is a good way to deal with it! 

Plus, if you are really good, it'll taste almost as good as Chick-fil-a's Lemonade.

The final approach to life, is when life hands you lemons, you magically make it into orange juice. And as a result, the world is left wondering how in the world you manage to make orange juice from lemons! Taking what life is handing you, and working with it is great. But going above and beyond will make you happier in the long run.

So what will you do when Life gives you Lemons??
