'Cuz when life gives you free lemons...

"When life gives you free lemons, take them. 'Cause hey, it's free lemons."
Ehh... I really don't know.

Well, I just got back home. I'm not really supposed to be until in... five to ten minutes. I was at the town library just now with some friends, and I should be walking home right now. As I was about to leave, one of my friend's grandmother was also there to pick her up; I saw her before.

---

A "good afternoon" and I was about to leave.

But no. I was offered a ride for the second time from the same very nice person.

"Oh no it's fine. Just a fifteen minute walk."

---

But I guess it's just that because of the way the world works, she insisted. "Oh, no. It's on the way."

---

Should we really take advantage of others generous offers?

Or should we take a sack of money when it's offered to us out of generosity? It would be tempting to do that wouldn't it?

Or should we say, "If you insist" and atually be glad when the offered says, "Oh, no. That's too much to ask for." Would you do that?

---

I want to think about this stuff, but part of me doesn't. I never really intend to live my days with set scripts: do this when this happens; Say that when that happens...

Sometimes, I just feel a bit awkward when I just take whatever's put into my hands, and just look at it. what can I say? Just a thank you. Maybe with some extra words with it. "I really appreciated." "It was very kind of you." But it never satisfies me just saying that. I really don't think it satisfies any favor. I'm thinking too much again.
I'm home now, and I'm supposed to anyways. Hm.
