Abstract

you can write about happenings that occurred that had a much different outcome than you might have ever dreamed. Use this as a way to encourage yourself that you were strong enough to go through it. You have a fantastic set of experiences that you can write about that might help others. People were going through similar things that you were courageous enough to get through and get on with your life.</p><figure id="5311"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/0*9msLJr42_YAdxjqX"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@taisiia_shestopal?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral">Taisiia Shestopal</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p id="cd50">Using the adage to make lemonade out of any lemons (taking what appears to be a negative experience and turning it into something where I can grow and get on with life).

Writing About Perfect Moments

I enjoy reading about people talking about memorable moments in their lives. Most everyone has unforgettable memories that they reflect on in times of plenty or in times of difficulty. Athletes train for hours, months, years — all in search of the “zone.” Philosophers ponder for years to come up with life’s answers or lack thereof. We all wait for that moment of ah-ha that leads us to greater understanding and peace of mind. We are all searching for that perfect moment when everything is in alignment — our relationships, health, happiness, and finances.

While we are busy waiting, I think we often miss the revelations that every moment is perfect. Now you might be saying wait just a minute — -what happened is not a good thing, how can it be perfect? In the larger picture, how do you know it is not a good thing?

I have had some amazing things come out of situations that, at the time, I thought they were close to the worst things that had ever to happen to me. As I look back on them now, I would not be where or who I am today if they had not happened. And, I’m still here, alive, and writing to you on this glorious day.

Look back in your life and over the last few months and see if you can write about happenings that occurred that had a much different outcome than you might have ever dreamed. Use this as a way to encourage yourself that you were strong enough to go through it. You have a fantastic set of experiences that you can write about that might help others. People were going through similar things that you were courageous enough to get through and get on with your life.

Using the adage to make lemonade out of any lemons (taking what appears to be a negative experience and turning it into something where I can grow and get on with life). I can say I have a cookbook filled with recipes for every type of lemon combination possible. I’m sure you have quite a good set of recipes too. I’m encouraging you to share through your writing.

I might need one of your combinations to get through the adventure I am currently in and don’t have a solution. You could save me time trying to discover how what is happening could be a perfect moment and turned into an experience that would benefit me and others. I might even find that it will be one of my favorite recipes for something lemon by seeing it as positive rather than negative.

Every bit of encouragement you can give to others about getting through life’s adventures and getting on to moving forward is one of the best gifts you could give. Share and see how your valuable ideas and insight can touch others’ lives and, in return, satisfy you as an author.
