Life is Good

Photo Credit: Bob Fornal
When life hands you a bowl of lemons, you make lemonade.  

When life throws you a curve ball, hit a home run.  

When life catches you by surprise, smile, it can turn your day around.  

When life breaks your heart, cry and move on.  

Life is good.  Never let it get the best of you.

  9. Life is the best dang thing I know! Some days I still can't believe I'm here, it's all so amazing.

    Linda, you are an optimistic one and a rare treasure!

  10. Mama Zen- Thank you.

    Jannie- Life is good, I'll agree, but honestly, I'm not as uplifting and optimistic right now as this piece would indicate. Maybe I'm just trying to convince myself. Still, it is good to still be here!

  12. Katherine- I am glad it made you smile. When I sat down to write my "55" the thing about making lemonade from lemons popped into my head, and I went with it. Hope you are feeling better.
