Catherine HapkaTalk about turning lemons into lemonade!
About This Quote
This is a neat and rather clever saying. It is not often that we can turn something bad into something good. But, this is exactly what this saying means. It implies that if you get something bad, you can do something about it and turn it into something positive.
If you end up in a bad situation, you can talk about turning lemons into lemonade. This means that you can be thankful for the bad thing and find some way to turn it into a good thing for yourself, thus giving you something to be thankful about.
