“When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade.”
– Dale Carnegie
- Sometimes there are days or hour,
- When feelings taste like sweet or sour;
- Life’s indeed have flavors & colours,
- Live it & grasp it whatever she offers.
- If life gives you lemon – make a lemonade!
- Taste it & share it before it faded.
- Be who you are inside & outside,
- Life is a journey so enjoy your ride.
- The brightest yellowish shades of lemons;
- Whom many love it & make their favorites.
- It’s acidic & mostly sour tastes,
- But gives our foods its delicious flavours.
- And so as in life adventures,
- Trials & struggles makes us better;
- To grow older & wiser,
- To understand & to love deeply more.

Great post.When life gives you lemons, make whatever you want, become an alchemist. In contemporary society alchemy is a term used to describe the ability that people have to manifest personal change. Inner alchemy provides us the means to better understand ourselves, the Universe we live in and our purpose in life. I explore this subject in my latest blog article https://authorjoannereed.net/when-life-gives-you-lemon-makes-lemonade/. Feel free to check it out!

Ooh, my apologies dear Joanne. It’s a year already but just now I notice your comment. ☺️
Beautiful thoughts indeed. Thank you for sharing it here. Another lessons learned from you. “When life gives us lemon, be an Alchemist.” True it is for human beings to know his /her ability to understand self etc & to change/improve what is needed.
Yes, I did visit the link you mentioned & I love your post. It’s very inspiring & motivating. Love to read more of your ideas & inspirations following you then.
Speaking of Alchemy, I remember “The Alchemist” book of Paulo Coelho. This is one of my fave quotes from the many messages in the book:
“….The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.” – said the wisest of wise men (The Alchemist).
Thank you Joanne for taking time reading my post.
