There is a saying in English:
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade!
This means that when we experience a hard or bad situation, we can think of it in a positive way.
Example:
I ripped my shirt on the fence post. That's great! Now I have a chance to learn how to sew.
The Lemon= I ripped my shirt
The Lemonade= Now I can learn how to sew
I made a lemon into lemonade!
Example 2:
I lost my job working at LG. That's good for me because now I have time to start my own business.
The Lemon= I lost my job
The Lemonade= I have time to start my own business
I made a lemon into lemonade!
The basic meaning is simple: be optimistic (be positive)
