I second that.
We wouldnt be here if we didnt realize we're in need of healing.
Most of us have had enough negativity on our news feeds, tv shows, lives in general.
We're trying to find our way out of the dark, not add to it

In reality, there is no glass. It's metaphorical. It was put there by the originator as a form of measurement. I'm not even sure what is in the glass. I don't know if what we are measuring is something that can be measured quantitatively or not. I saw a video about a man's life being destroyed by alcohol, a guy now hanging by a thread.
I'm not even sure why that metaphor popped into my mind. I guess I was trying to compare what that guy's life is like now to what it could have been.

He has a lot to offer to those still sick and suffering in his former profession and others.
He has valuable experience.
