Pressure

We all experience tension and pressure in our daily lives. Here is an example of an argument on a bus in Hong Kong, "The Bus Uncle," with English and Cantonese subtitles. The older man is a typical local arrogant, disgusting guy.


The New York piano player and song writer Billy Joel sings about pressure in this video:


Try to remain calm and do not allow other people's tension affect you personally.

Or, if you say the glass is half full, then you are being an optimist by appreciating the good half of what you have.

This is a common expression of one's attitude towards life, probably with parallels throughout the world's cultures.
