[Deep Thoughts] Glass Not Half Full

[Kyle]

Who do you know who is living life to the fullest?

There's a big difference between half-full and spilling over the rim.
We tend to overlook our many blessings, and see that 'Hey, there's nearly half a glass of unused capacity/potential that's going to waste here.'

Overfull is also wasteful, as anybody who enjoys old port or old scotch will attest to. Leave some space so you can relax a little while you wander back to your table.

Lately I'm living exactly the same way that I drive a go-kart, and as Bill points out, that is not necessarily a good thing, though it translates favorably if you like to win go-kart races. I'd like to have some space left over for stumbling idly back to my table, now and again. Things are way too intense.
