Is the glass half empty or half full? is a common expression, used rhetorically to indicate that a particular situation could be a cause for optimism (half full) or pessimism (half empty); or as a general litmus test to simply determine if an individual is an optimist or a pessimist. The purpose of the question is to demonstrate that the situation may be seen in different ways depending on one's point of view and that there may be opportunity in the situation as well as trouble.
(from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is_the_glass_half_empty_or_half_full%3F)For World Water Day 2020, the challenge is for everyone to raise a glass or container that is either half full or half empty. Those who have half full gla**** must pledge to help those whose gla**** are half empty. Those whose gla**** are half empty must pledge to seek the opportunities to find their gla**** half full.
(I had this idea before I read MAK's post. Really!)
