1/2 empty glass
has everything
2 do with perspective
Middle English, optical
from Medieval Latin, perspectivus
aiding the vision
[{his eyes were like unto the wrong end of a perspective glass, when answering this blathe}]
of,
relating to,
employing,
or seen in perspective
[{perspective glass: structures, mass consumption, articulated usage}]
first in order to create a hypothesis, one has to gather as much information as possible:
+ what kind of glass are we referring 2
[art glass, borosilicate glass, cased glass, cheval glass, cocktail glass, cover glass, crown glass, cut glass, depression glass, field glass, flint glass, float glass, glass wool, glass sponge, glass snake]
+ can we all agree, it is the same kind of glass we are communicating about
+what is it being filled with: gases, liquids, solids, theories, dreams, hopes, aspirations, wishes, goals, etc.?
Whether the glass is /half full or half empty/ depends upon a plethora of elements & reasoning
] what is your 'perspective'
are you a scientist, artist, writer, cook, person on a diet, food service provider, dancer, avant garde filmmaker...
] what is your hypothesis, often times this will skew a scientists results, esp. if a certain grant was obtained & certain expectations needed to be filled in order for annual renewal
] what is your motivation for asking/answering this question
Well, if the glass was filled only half way, but done so [upside down]... than what? [would that make it 1/2 full or 1/2 empty]
&
if it were once full and then emptied to the half way mark {which is subjective to interpretation & 'perspective' yet once again} would that necc. make it ... 1/2 empty?
