Ye' Old Question on that Wascally Glass

Is a glass half full or (I'll say it) half empty?
Is there a set rule defining this query?
Depends, I suppose, on the light and the angle,
the mood of the viewer and their emotional tangles.
Myself, you see, and speaking only for me,
(tossing presumptions to side, it can only thus be),
having viewed this glass, from one side and top,
from bottom in twilight to sunniest spots; I find,
amazingly so, (and wouldn't you just know)
with the level the same from sunset to next,
one gander yields, yes, half empty, unmolested and dormant,
with revisit followed, now half full yet naught changed;
a most vexing torment, exceedingly strange.
Concluding thusly, logic harnessed to mind,
hitched like oxen goaded to find
a riddle so simple, the answer so glaring
contents remaining, in mockery still;
each of us find, through our very own eyes
our emotional state dictates how it's filled.

Hello there bud
So true and strange how the same person can view the same glass in two minds. One day half full and the next half empty. We humans are wired weird LOL. Good write food for thought or should one say food for confusion. Blessings
Greetings
