Lemons vs. Chocolate
Wouldn’t it be so nice if it were that easy, to just trade in the parts of your life that are too crappy to want to handle?
Honestly, if I was offered a lemon or a candy bar you know which one I’m choosing.
I was texting a dear friend tonight and we were catching up about all the hard stuff life has thrown at us. When we were done texting we still had the same problems to face that we had before we started chatting, but now weirdly, we both feel a little better. We feel a little more validated and loved. I feel a little lighter and more confident to keep pushing through the sour moments.
Now that’s what I call a good trade.
If you can’t trade your lemons for chocolate, share your crap with a good friend. A friend who will validate you and support you no matter what life throws at you.
Your problems might still be there, but I promise they will feel a little bit more bearable and less acidic. š
If you don’t have a friend to talk to, I’m only a message away. I can’t fix your problems but I can guarantee you, life is sweeter with someone who hears you.
And for all of you out there who think you are alone with your huge bowl of lemons, YOU’RE NOT! Everyone has got them!
So forget lemonade… go drink some chocolate milk. š( ok now I Know it’s past my bedtime with that last line)
