life gives you lemons and you don't want to make lemonade. Maybe you don't want lemonade because it is to cold out to drink lemonade, you don't like lemonade or your local grocery store simply doesn't have enough sugar for all the lemons. Maybe you don't even like lemon cake or lemon cream pie or lemon poppyseed muffins.
So, when life gives you lemons and you don't want lemonade, what do you do?
Do you stay home, speak up, ask for help, cry, leave town, eat, work, go to movies, clean, hug your kids, your boyfriend or your mom?
Do you listen to rap music or country, practice yoga, meditate, run, shop, pray or cook?
Do you sleep more, sleep less, take long walks, long drives?
Do you seek out change, look for something new, wonder about what could have been, should have been?
I won't say life has given me lemons. I feel as if I can't say that. I have three amazing children who I can not imagine my life without. I have a warm home in the winter and cool home in the summer. I have clothes on my back (and I like most of them). I have time to work out, run, go to pilates. I am not hungry or cold (well sometimes cold, but only because I like it that way). I have friends who I wouldn't get through the day without. So, I feel guilty sometimes when life's circumstances affect my outlook on life, because my brain tells me I am not allowed to feel this way - there are people who have lost loved ones, sick people, hungry kids.
And yet, here I am. My heart feeling as if it is lost in a bowl of lemons and my head telling me to get over it. What do you do? Where do you go from here?
