Life loves to give us lemons. You know it, I know it. What we do with them is entirely up to us. My lemon of the day is a sore back and what I suspect to be a sprained foot. This means that I can't make the five kilometer walk I planned on doing today in my never-ending search for a job. But, just because I'm stuck at the house doesn't mean I can't do anything. I'm using that time made free to make phone calls and process some paperwork. This is what people like to call making lemonade, and it's easy once you learn how.
Any time you're given a lemon, you've got some options. You can just sit there and suck on it with a sour look on your face, waiting until it's drained so you can move on to sweeter fruit down the road, or you can find some sugar and make lemonade like other people do. You could demand life take them back, stand proud like Cave Johnson and threaten to make incendiary weapons out of them, or you could get crafty, wait for them to ferment and make some sour Limoncello.
There's a lot of options you've got when you get stuck with a lemon. The only variable is how creative you're willing to get to make the lemons work in your favor.

"When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these?"
