Life Is What You Make Of It

In Life – try to turn negatives into positives:

إذا ناولك أحدهم كوب ليمون فأضف إليه حفنة من سكر…
وإذا أهدي لك ثعبان فخذ جلده الثمين واترك بقيته…

If someone were to hand you a glass full of squeezed lemons, add to it a handful of sugar.

And if someone gives you a snake as a gift, keep its precious skin and leave the rest.

If someone gives you a rope to hang yourself with it, use the rope to make a swing.

Life throws all sorts of things at you, it’s up to you to turn the negatives into positives.
