depends on my mood, sometimes there can be a drop and its over flowing in my mind, other times it can be overflowing and i see only a drop, alot depends on my mood...

I am still young, but for most of my life I always looked at everything that was missing in my life. Money, a father figure, a stable home etc etc. I always noted what was missing in life and that attitude kept me in a sustained sort of depression for most of my high school days.

Then about 3 years ago, amid college and a 4 year relationship going south I decided to turn life around. I came to the realization that I should stop playing victim to life and start controlling the things that happen to me. People bothered me because I allowed them to be in my life, thing happened to me because I got myself into most of the situations. I realized that while I wasn't rich, I certainly wasn't poor.

I also have things that so many other people don't, like a loving family. My mom had me at 42 years old amid a vicious divorce, despite this she busted her ass to raise me right and give me a normal life. I am very close to her and I am very very lucky to have someone like her in my life.

I could go on and on forever about why I enjoy my day to day life, but as you can probably tell.....The glass is half full.

Am I drinking or pouring?

Dnyce · 04-06-2008, 10:07 PM

neither. the glass is broken. nothing is forever, everything will become nothing.

im not depressed-just think about it.

the glass is empty... or will be if it was sitting infront of me.

i voted half empty because i just KNOW everybody wants to think they're an optimist, but only for the sake of sounding like an optimist, so they're voting the opposite of what they really are because they think if they vote they're a pessimist everybody will heckle them.

that is my logic. can it. sell it.

half full - I know I have a lot of things that are good in my life that many others don't. My parents are fairly well off, get along great, and are always fun to be around. I am close to my grandparents and siblings. I have a ton of great friends who I would do anything for and would do the same for me. Really, isn't that all that matters in life anyway?

NONE_too_SOFT · 04-06-2008, 11:44 PM

ya know what? fuck the glass.

who fills a glass halfway anyways? what are you gonna add some carnation instant breakfast in there? are you leaving room to pour something else in?

If you didnt want to drink that much use a smaller glass.

Half empty, I am definitely a pessimist.
