Is the Glass Half Full or Half Empty?

Warm Diwali greetings to all our cherished readers, beloved family, and loyal friends at DSIJ! As we celebrate the festival of lights, may the divine grace illuminate our paths and alleviate the burdens of pain and misery from our lives. Imagine a glass, half-filled with water, poised right at the halfway mark. The age-old question arises: Is this glass half empty or is it half full? This simple scenario often serves as a litmus test to discern one’s perspective on life. The optimist perceives the glass as half full, while the pessimist insists it’s half empty. It’s a reflection of how we see the world.
