My crazy self decided to join a #10DayChallenge for Content Creation. Based on the creator, Kymone Hinds, I’m supposed to not lose my mind or get stressed out. We shall see how that will work out.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
We have all heard this saying, but at times I just really feel like this…
“When life gives you lemons, make champagne and leave the whole world wondering how you did it!”

I mean lemons are great and all and so is lemonade, but sometimes these lemons that you are “given”
- are they even organic
- they aren’t “given” but thrown
Honestly, is the lemonade coming from Chick-fil-a? Or better yet why isn’t it a cherry limeade from Sonics? Yes, I added and “S” to Sonic!
Plus, what if I don’t want lemonade and just need to drink some water…mmmmmm nature’s juice.

Why does everything have to have such a positive outcome? That’s not real life. Sometimes when not so good, horrible things happen or when we are having a hard day the last thing we are thinking about is making some damn lemonade!
AND THAT’S OK!
Sometimes it’s ok to just sit with the lemons and examine them. Feel bad for a bit. Have a good cry. Talk to someone about the lemons that are invading your personal space.
Then when you’re good and ready do something with the lemons…
- mix it with vodka
- freeze them and then throw them back at life
- grab some tequila and salt
- make a lemon cake
- juggle them
- make a battery
It’s all up to you…
