Howdy Hivers!
There are days when the sun is shining brightly that it feels like it will never end. Your world is colorful, and the rainbow is everywhere. Waves of laughter are here and there and all you can see are the smiles of those people you crossed paths with.
However, life is not only about happy days. There are days that rain is pouring, and sometimes it is a strong rain that turns into a storm. The sky is gloomy. Your temper is too short. And nothing around you is going your way. That is when life starts to throw lemons at you.
But don't be sad or dismayed if life starts to throw lemons at you because there are so many things that you can do to turn your life back to happy days.

When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and leave the world wondering how you did it - Mitch Griego
Let's start with making orange juice to make people wonder how you are doing it in spite of all the lemons that were thrown on you.
The people around you don't have to know how you deal with your life. They may see that you're struggling with your daily life but they don't know or see all the hard work that you do to make life much better. Therefore, just keep on doing your best and let them taste the orange juice that you made that comes from the lemons that they throw. Life is full of magic and definitely full of surprises that will make you smile every now and then.
Lemonade is boring, when life gives you lemons make a delicious pie, lemon meringue pie. - Colleen Houck
Let's be more creative this time, making lemonade out of the lemons that are thrown at you is a bit boring. Everyone is expecting that you will make lemonade out of those lemons. So instead of making a simple boring juice let's make it a little grand by making lemon meringue pie.
How are you doing it? By showing them that you can make it. By showing the people that you can do better than what they expect. That no matter how hard they throw the lemons at you, You can still smile and be merry with life. All you have to do is accept the things that you can change and the things that you cannot change and keep moving on with life.
Having a lemon meringue pie that is made out of those lemons that were thrown at you is one of the best things in life. It can make your life sweeter after all the bitterness.
When life gives you lemons, freeze them and use them to throw at your enemies using some sort of trebuchet - Jenny Lawson
I'm calling this one sweet revenge. It's like making someone taste their own medicine.
It may sound a bit hard but there are people who need to learn their lessons. There are some people who are abusive. There are even some that just keep on testing your patience. And there are some that are too annoying and too below the belt that you can't help but do the same things to them. This is the time when you need to use some tough love.
It may hurt the people to throw them back the lemons that they threw at you but if it will help them to become a better person, why not right? I would gladly freeze those lemons and throw those lemons back to them if it means changing them for the better. What about you? will you do it if that means the other person will learn his/her lessons?

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade and then find someone whose life has given them vodka, and have a party! - Ron White
It's party time! Yep, receiving lemons can mean party time too! Why? What do you mean why? Everyone receives lemons yes not every day but mostly everyone does receive them and if you are lucky you will receive a stronger one, not just lemon but a shot of vodka. And if this happens to you, go find someone who can join in it.
Having problems doesn't mean you have to solve them on your own, having hardship doesn't mean you have to go through it alone. There are struggles in life where you will need someone. Someone not just to depend on but someone who can walk with you hand on hand facing all the struggles of life. And it's not wrong to rely on someone if the hardship is too much to bear. As they said, no man is an island, so go find someone and make life bearable. Enjoy that lemon with vodka, who knows maybe that someone can be there for you forever.
