Wouldn't it be great if you could choose the path your life takes you? Let's face it, things happen that are beyond our control. So what can we control?...how we respond to the unexpected.
Often times we respond to unpleasant experiences defensively, perhaps a hint of denial. As justified as that response may be, it's important not to let that take hold of our hearts and minds. Bitterness results and if we let that take hold, watch out! It's amazing how bitterness can consume a person and make them miserable inside and out. I know I don't want to be the grumpy old lady that never has anything nice to say or do.
So life's handed you lemons, are you going to keep them the way they are, sour and unpleasant, or would you rather turn them into something sweet and pleasant? Personally, I prefer lemonade.
You made it! I prefer lemonade too!

Welcome to the bloggy world.
Kristy, welcome to bloggy world. I like your attitude, and I agree, life takes us places we never dreamed we'd go. And sometimes you just have to put one foot in front of the other and trust that God will make your path straight.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading more of your thoughts.
