“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!” We hear that quote from time to time over and over again, but what does it truly mean? It’s a phrase that’s meant to encourage people to see things in a positive light/optimistic view during difficult (or sour) times. Personally, I absolutely love everything that that quote stands for.
Let’s face it – we’re all human. We get frustrated, annoyed, upset, and angry about things that happen. Life has its ups, and it sure has its downs. This month has been a bit of a rough one for me – I’ve been stressed and sick (my health/body definitely took a toll) – I have been in the midst of moving apts, working late nights, swamped with planning trips, marking things off my never-ending to do list and honestly just struggling to juggle everything on my plate. I’m a super organized, Type A personality and I cringe when I feel like I’m not on top of everything. Regardless, I’ve tried to remain positive throughout it all (and luckily I have a sweet BF who is the most optimistic person I’ve ever met + a great reminder to keep trekking on!) It is so so important to always see the sweet side of things even in tough situations. I’m always motivated & inspired by others who remain positive, and that’s who I want to be to others too! When you’re down, just keep thinking of everything GOOD and HAPPY that’s going on in your life. Spread the joy as much as possible and surround yourself with wonderful people who see the bright side of things.
Oh, and of course it’s fun to take motivational quotes you live by, and wear them loud and proud on your clothing! Like this adorbs lemon dress I got from 2ubest. I love fruit print dresses, and this one just screams happiness on a dress 🙂 It’s sooo comfy, and I love the stretchy material in the chest area. The ruffles on the bottom are so fun – and the best part is – it’s under $20!! This dress is an absolute MUST for summer.
