Lemons

I was laying down in a bed when she opened the door and entered my room.

"What're you doing?' I said.

"Laying down, I see," she said. "Why must pity for oneself? This kind of moments could be the best thing for a writer."

She's right. Write down your pain and turn it into a colorful dimension of poems or novels. But that is the worst part of being a writer. We turn melancholy into an art and achieve happiness. But the joy of it won't last long.

We were told to turn lemons into lemonade even when lemonade isn't what we want at all.
