Half Full Gallery Canvas Print
When a container is at 50% capacity, it is half full. But technically, it’s also half empty. Both are absolutely correct assessments of the container in question. If the label you give it is completely subjective, go with the one that gives us the best chance of going somewhere beyond what we thought was possible. So many of our experiences in life could be seen in the same light. We lose our job. We break a leg. We get dumped by the one we thought was The One. Is that unexpected thing that just happened in your life an obstacle or an opportunity? Yes. Both are absolutely correct assessments of the event in question. Deciding what you call it can make all the difference. I don’t know if I’m naturally optimistic or not. These days, even though I still feel fearful about getting my hopes up only to have them dashed, I’m realizing it’s more of a choice than a disposition. We all get to make that choice every single day. To me, there’s really no contest. I choose half full. pr
