Sometime's life kicks you in the face. Some people just sit down and accept it, and say "hey, sometimes life kicks you in the face, what are you gonna do?" They accept it like an idiot cousin. You know, you can't choose family and all that. But this doesn't have to be the case. Sometimes you have to stand up to life. When it kicks you in the face, stand up and say "Jesus man, that just wasn't called for". And then karate kick life right back in the face. Go pick on someone your own size. Maybe then life will learn not to mess with you.

And one day you might go to the supermarket for some fruit. But life is re-stocking the shelf, and all he has are lemons. So life hands you some lemons and says "sorry pal" and laughs that snarky little laugh of his. Some people might respond: "Meh, lemons aren't so bad...the fruit salad might taste a little odd but sometimes change is good." But no, this is simply unacceptable. Take the lemons, and exclaim "What kind of asshole supermarket only sells lemons? You must be fucking kidding me!", then pound life in the face with them, until the juice drips down his face. Catch the lemon juice in a container. Mix it with some sugar. Make lemonade? Fuck no! Rub the mixture in life's eyes. The little bastard tried to pass lemons off as fruit. And that my friends, is simply unacceptable.

So when life decides to punch you in the teeth occasionally, as is his want, punch back. Don't wallow in a puddle of your blood, sweat and drool. Fight back. Get off the mat. Have some self-respect.

PEACE.
