What do you see?
Conventional wisdom urges us to focus on the full half. After much contemplation, I am arriving at a slightly different viewpoint:
To not gloss over the empty half.
To fully acknowledge it,
but not let the mind linger too long.
Then, take a step back
and challenge oneself to also see
the other half, no matter how hard
it may be. Because there is always
a full half. Two halves, and a dance
to be held with complete awareness.
