Dealt the bag of lemons

When you are given the gift of a bag of lemons, one's first reaction is to feel so weighted down by this heavy bag of lemons and there is a bit of time for disbelief or shock or confusion. But after the dust settles, this is when we dig deep to see what we are all about. Are we about fear, worry and trepidation? Or are we about pulling ourselves back up from the ground, accepting our gift and turning it into a positive? Even the most positive thinker gets stumped on some things. Especially those things which the desired outcome is supposed to be positive and your wonderful plan backfires in your face! The lessons usually to learn are to keep the vision clear of what you want and take that big ole bag of lemons and start making some lemonade! Everything works out, it always does. But this takes discipline, trust and surrender. Having a knowing that it will work and just leaving it at that and accepting the guidance that comes our way is not an easy task! And yet it is so easy.....trust, surrender and listen and the answers come....
