With a fourteen year old and an 11 ½ year old at home, I am reminded of something I learned from my older son when he was still living here.
I asked him, “Are you the type who sees the glass as half-full or half-empty?” He thought for a minute before replying.
“I’m the type who doesn’t notice the glass sitting in the middle of the floor, but I still manage to walk around it. If you then asked me about the glass, I’d honestly answer, ‘What glass?’”
Parents everywhere know exactly what I mean.
And one more thing…
If you have déjà vu about a déjà vu experience, is it deja deja vu? Déjà vu vu? Or merely (déjà vu)2?
