[QUOTE="Ophiolite, post: 77639188, member: 234799"] I understand. It's an interesting painting. It asks questions. Who is the young woman? What is she doing there? What is her connection with the house? Is the house a farmhouse, a country retreat? You regretted learning the back story. I'll make a point of not seeking to find any answers, others than those produced by my subconscious, and . . . Who was the painter? I'm guessing American, 1920s, or thereabouts. I am puzzled by your response, which does not seem to relate to what I posted. Certainly you have no way of knowing whether I have, or have not, or to what extent, "suffered for my beliefs". So your statement is presumptuous and seems condemnatory; perhaps I have misunderstood, in which case I would welcome clarification. As to liking to type my beliefs, I think the function of a Discussion and Debate forum is exactly that - to share ones thoughts and speculations, ideas and experiences, so I don't undersand why you are implicitly criticising me for doing so. If I have said something that offends I'd like to know what that is so that, if appropriate, I may apologise. [/QUOTE]
