When life gives you lemons

...make a skinny margarita; it's less calories! 

Sounds silly, but this is a great coping mechanism when your first reaction is to have a pity party.  It is so easy for me to get wrapped up in the fact that I am lacking a love life.  I would love to go on a date, or have a crush on a guy, or smize across the room to a handsome gentleman.  I often find myself singing the "why me" song, but today in class one of my students said something so profound.  When asked why she was a morning person her reply was, "It's a new day".  It truly is! That comment gave me SO much perspective.  Waking up in the morning is truly a blessing. Waking up with sound mind and body is even more of a blessing.  Instead of harping on the shoulda, coulda, wouldas, why not focus on the blessings?  They will bring so much more meaning to your life.

Now time to practice what I preach...
