Egyptians didn't have cranes, but that didn't stop them, they used what they had (alot of /slaves/ workers died but that's not the point), and made amaizing pyramid structures that stand tall to this day.
I mean, lemonade came from a dude who only had lemons on his farm (at least it's what I believe)
What ever life gave you, it has potential that might not have been discovered, yet. I mean, who'd thought a long-cross screw and nuts on either side could be used to lift a tonne of vehicle for a tyre change?
Use what you have to bring about what you love.

life gave you free lemons? #gifted. those shits are like $1 a pop in the grocery stores.
$1 a lemon is extremely expensive
I mean, you make lemonade. Not just because of the adage, but because lemonade is delicious.
Kinda depend how much lemon Life gave you. If it's one, maybe make a glass of lemonade with sugary syrup and salted dried sour plum. Add the dried plum into 1/10 mug of hot water, stir for a few second, add in the lemon juice and some ice, then fill it up with water and you got a glass of refreshing lemonade.
If it's a few, maybe you can make lemon pound cake or lemon cheese cake instead.
Make lemonade.
How badly are you anchored in you current location. If nothing is holding you back, drop everything, pick a direction and go, till you find something or something finds you.
Make love
Not war
Build a lemon cannon and fire them right back.
