EP15 What You See Is What You Get

IS THE GLASS HALF-FULL OR HALF-EMPTY? WE ARE WEIGHING IN ON THIS TOPIC THAT HAS BEEN FLOATING AROUND FOR YEARS… IF I WAS TO PLACE A GLASS WITH WATER IN IT AND SIT IT ON A TABLE AND ASK PEOPLE THEIR OPIONION  ON WHETHER THEY CONSIDER THE GLASS TO BE HALF FULL OR HALF EMPTY I WOULD MORE THAN LIKELY GET SOME PEOPLE WHO WILL SAY TO ME THAT THEY SEE THE GLASS HALF FULL, WHILE OTHERS WILL SAY THEY SEE THE GLASS HALF EMPTY. THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION, BOTH ANSWERS ARE CORRECT, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT CONTRADICTATORY. THE GLASS IS HALF EMPTY AND HALF FULL AT THE SAME TIME. THE FOCUS OF THE QUESTION IS NOT ABOUT THE STATE OF THE GLASS, BUT MORE ABOUT THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE OBSERVER.
