I am a glass three-quarters full person.
I started off with a full glass but a little was tipped out a long time ago. It is still there, around the base of the glass.
Sometimes I see the droplets, shiny, glinting back at me, pieces of the whole, and bemoan the loss.
But really, the absence of something – the spillage – has given me room to move, to slide, to bubble and settle, and because there is a little distance from the top of the liquid to the top of my glass, it feels that little bit safer. Somehow.
I like glass three quarters full - much more fulfilling than glass half full! Nice imagery in your words.
