The Half-Full Glass Philosophy

CNN iReport is truly one fiery site,whew! Brilliant minds clashing and engaging in GD and BB (sorry DADT,but you have to rest now).GD as in Great Debate and BB for Battle of the Brains.Oh,I'm doing my own BB too! Breathe in...Breathe out,to all the heated arguments in here.=) As you get to read posts,you will see conflicting behaviors and attitudes which I find very interesting.

Close your eyes.Imagine,that on your right hand,you are holding a glass that is filled midway.Now look inside the glass.Is it half-full or half-empty?

Your perception and response to this specific situation and other similar,even more exacting circumstances may just mirror your sweeping stance on life.On one hand,if you are a pessimist,you are more likely to perceive negative life events disapprovingly,expecting the nastiest upshots possible.Conversely,if you consider yourself an optimist,you view distressing events as restricted,transitory and manageable.But what these paradoxical dispositions notably boil down to is that certain individual attitudes can have great bearing not only on how well you live your life but also how long you live.
