The miracle of turning lemons into lemonade. The sourness becomes sweetness, an enemy becomes a friend, someone who is grieving becomes one who rejoices, one who is poor accepts his lot, one who is rich gives to the poor and then he is no longer poor, a widow falls in love and thrives in a new relationship, a child who lost his mother finds love in an aunt, a man who quits school is given a second chance and a scholarship for a free education, a man who is unhappy learns how to be gracious and to thank G-d for everything and then becoming happy.
A man who cannot face reality is given a reality that he can face, a woman who was not raised in a religious home finds G-d and makes Him her one true love, a girl who is told she is disabled rises higher in her accomplishments than anyone else in her family, a boy who is told he is dumb becomes a scholar and a graduate from the best university, a man who cannot walk exercises his legs everyday until he is able to run, a woman who talks to no one keeping all to herself is able to write an autobiography and then give a speech about her life to an audience.
Turning lemons into lemonade is fun, not work, because drinking it up is your reward.
