If life gives you oranges

Oranges
Lovely Orange

If life gives you lemons, oh pity lemons. I pity lemon for being the subject of continuous assault by the corporate world which made lemons so infamous indeed 🙂 and making it indeed a  fruit portraying low esteem and low value despite its nutritional and medicinal values.

Said that basically the phrase “When life gives you lemon make lemonade out of it” implies that you were expecting something other than lemon, may be apples. Also the sour taste of lemon makes it a victim.

If, ifs and Ands were pots and pans there would have been no need for tinkers hand.

If there is Life, there is a struggle and if we get oranges and lemons then only we realize the value of sweeter side of our life. Nothing is more fulfilling than the sense of achievement doesn’t matter whether you squeeze the lemons or oranges or sell them.

So life will keep on giving oranges and lemons we need to

1-Add more oranges and give it back to the person.

2-Sell them considering they are diamonds.

3-Make it someone else’s oranges, or look for associating more people with some common area of concern. So now basically it will be a global problem and they everyone needs to look for a solution.

4-Look for ways to bartering it.

So essentially there is no need to worry for lemons and oranges it’s just the way you handle situations and there are no coaching for it, life is the best teacher and it will make you learn what you need to do with your lemons.

Enjoy and lots of love and hugs to all.

Pour Some Sugar on Me

What is your favorite sweet thing to eat? Bread pudding? Chocolate chip oatmeal cookies? A smooth and creamy piece of cheesecake? 

I am taken down the memory lane with Pour Some Sugar on Me.

This relates to the Def Lepard hit single Pour Some Sugar on me from their album Hysteria. What a craze it was with this album, the title track Hysteria was also a huge success, at the same time the rock and ballad king Richard Marx also came out with the hit Hold on to the nights. Try these tracks with some sweets am sure you would like them, just give time to dissolve like sugar.

Coming back to the sugary post, I would go with cakes, pastries, Indian sweets ( they offer a huge variety) and home made cookies and cakes.

Enjoy some of the sugary snaps from my collection and have a sweet time:

What’s the best thing since sliced bread!

What else, when we are belonging to this part of the century,

It’s keeping us busy without a story.

We are writing prompts, it is helping and entertaining us,

And Yes, at times it creates a lot of fuss.

From Obama to Osama all are searched,

No one is spared in this earth.

Stealing quality time from our family, friends and mates,

It taught us to socialize on Twitter, Facebook and Classmate.

What else on Earth is so crazy and overspread,

Internet is the best thing since sliced bread!.

Happy weekend all… keep posting.

Playlist of life

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Playlist of the Week.”

1- Monday begins with it just another Manic Monday -Bangles

2-After heading home its like” lts been a hard Days Night and I have been working like a Dogs”- Beatles

3-Someday will be Saturday Night – Jon Bon Jovi

4 -It’s a miracle Hysteria – Def Lepard

5 -NewYork city shaking and everybody breaking Stayin Alive – Bee Gees

– What’s Your take 5 –

In Good Faith…

To start with after I saw the daily prompt I read many of the responses, I did not mean to borrow ideas, today I wanted to read how others are thinking and how many people are having similar thoughts.

So most posts at least the ones I had read clearly state that they are not a church goer or a dedicated religious person and all agree to the fact that there is something, a force that drives us all.

So at times when people fall short, at times of distress, when we feel lost, when we are in the middle of nowhere, in emergency life and death situation, fear of losing –  do we utter God save me, and join our hands and look towards the sky.

It happens, I am not conservative when it comes to religion, I respect and believe in humanity above all. I had spent 12 years in a catholic school so I was brought up singing Carols.  So I enjoy most of the festivals and today y daughter sings the carols for me although she is not in the catholic now. However I love them and its nostalgic and the festive time of the year.

So this post and most of the post responding to this prompt becomes more directed towards our religious faith rather than sharing our experiences around it.

Love all and stay happy and Keep the Faith in everyone whom you love, be it your near or dear ones or your pet.
