In Need Of A New Retrospection

My perpetual dilemma of facing frustrations and disappointments from chasing dreams.. Sigh. When will it stop?? I'm really tired already... However the Oracle has spoken today:

I need a new retrospection. I need to move forward. Move on. But I'm lost. I need guidance. Help!

Lemons

"When life hands you lemons, make lemonade."

So the saying goes. But why settle for making lemonade when there are so many more possibilities?

When life hands you lemons...

* Cut them in half and squeeze the stinging, citrus pulp into the eyes of those who would dare to mock, threaten or oppose you.

* Just as life hands them to you, quickly toss them back. Yell, "You touched 'em last!" Then run away.

* Make lemon meringue pie.

* Sell 'em lemons to Breeze, they can make lemon smelling detergent.

* Juggle.

* Bleach your face with homemade lemon mask.

* Make lemonade. Add vodka. Drink. Declare that "life ishn't scho bad after all."

* Throw them back and say, "I want apples! Gimme apples!"

* Lemon fight!

* Simply refuse to sign for them. Life's lemons can't be delivered without an authorized signature.

* Pretend to "accidentally" drop one of them. When life bends over to pick it up, give life a major wedgie. Run away (without the lemons, of course.)

* Share them. Sharing is caring.

* Accept them graciously, so as not to cause life to suspect you of anything. Then stick one in life's exhaust pipe while it's in the grocery store picking up more lemons.

But hey, what if life hands you TOMATOES??? Make Bloody Marys. Cheers!

Hunkalicious!

The Forer Effect

• You have a need for other people to like and admire you, and yet you tend to be critical of yourself (yes I'm very critical indeed - I am my own worst enemy)
• While you have some personality weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them.
• You have considerable unused capacity that you have not turned to your advantage (I feel I have so much to offer so much I can give.. but I don't know how to channel them)
• Disciplined and self-controlled on the outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure on the inside (I think too much sometimes, contrary to popular beliefs)
• At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing (A true Libran, "indecisive" is my middle name, depending on the situation.. once decided I can be rather stubborn at times)
• You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations (hell yeah.. I'll rot at my desk by doing a 9-5 job!)
• You also pride yourself as an independent thinker; and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof (critical, analytical and skeptical, that's me!)
• But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others (only when it is safe to come out)
• At times you are extroverted, affable, and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, and reserved (can't agree more.. bi-polar personality maybe?)
  
• Some of your aspirations tend to be rather unrealistic (you mean like reading the news? yeah tell me about it!)

This quiz asks a few questions and generates a passage that describes you almost perfectly. It was first created by Dr. Forer in 1948 and has been used thousands of times since then. On average, it is accurate 4.2 out of 5 times!
