I was at a funeral yesterday afternoon. My long-time friend's mother passed away on Wednesday. While I was sitting on the church's bench, I came to th...
I know Dali painted some crucifixion or Christian symbolism. But all of them are like—let's say—'out of place.' They are not the average paintings of ...
I think I am starting to understand you -- you consider a tree as a creative being because it produces oxygen and for simply standing on Earth. Yet I ...
Do you mean that a tree exists because it is both logical and creative? What if we know about a tree's existence because we are the ones who are creat...
I think yes, it is. But to what extent does your conception of creativity go? -- either creativity in a literary and artistic sense or in a technical ...
Yep, and we can comment on them until the 31st of December. A perfect Christmas theme -- Reading stories under a tree; alongside the chimney embers, a...
Yes, because Dali's always loved to play with those metaphors and illusions. The same happens to watches melting in the branches or the trees hanging ...
Wow! It is true that it might be Kush's signature. I didn't pay attention to that. You are probably right, because I tried to find the painting in the...
Wholeheartedly. :cool: It doesn't matter; I agree. But it is very curious because it makes me wonder whether those members coincide in the bird thumbn...
Yes, I know it is not a big deal, but the profile picture is something curious. Some have a lot of birds on it (Jamal, T Clark, hypericin, etc.) And o...
I thought that when I saw you changed your profile image. The blue flower belongs to your personality—hope and the pursuit of art. I honestly think it...
I didn't know what to do on this boring Saturday, so I sent an email to Keir Starmer. I checked his official web page, and there were different email ...
I thought about Gore Vidal when I read your reply to Hanover! :sweat: The paradox is, Benkei, that you might be the winner when there are not any winn...
I find inspiration in listening to jazz and classical music. It also helps me Dalí's surreal paintings. These are examples of inspiration -- finding a...
The Seducer's Diary. by Kierkegaard. Firstly, I think it is notoriously to say that Kierkegaard's works are difficult to translate into our languages....
(1)We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here. (2)We are not respectable citizens. (3)Therefore, we are not part of that 'mobocracy' that you set up this we...
We will never leave you out, Benkei. You know you are always in our hearts, and whenever I see tulips in Castilian fields, it comes to my mind we are ...
Hello, Caldwell! Thank you! Glad to see you around here again. :smile: Would you have a bit of time to read (or even write, who knows!) the short stor...
Yes, it is fascinating. It reminds me of Melancholia by Fosse. The main character is Lars Hertervig. A Norwegian painter who suffered from a mental il...
Hello, welcome to TPF. Well, according to that writing style, I also like some authors whose novels are similar to the one you are currently reading. ...
Yes! I am fond of what I wrote until now, but what I spend my time the most on is proofreading my grammar. I don't want to use AI or that stuff, so I ...
Sorry, I am not currently doing well, lately, and it is true that I am sensitive. It is true that your comments were kind, and you didn't deserve my f...
Portugal is a safer place than the USA altogether. When I saw that you posted your aim to travel to Portugal, I thought -- he will think the food is '...
Yep, what I don't get is why we don't let them join the Eurozone. They deserve to have the euro as the primary currency. What can you do with Polish z...
@"fdrake" I finished the book (My Struggle 1). It is complicated to do a review in such a deep book. I think it has a lot of crucial parts, but Knausg...
Yes, I know what you are referring to, and I still think not. Those stories are not allowed either. @"Baden" will answer this later on when he logs in...
Well, I understand that it is very difficult to write a pure original work. I think it is normal to be influenced by other authors or novels. Again, t...
The guidelines do answer your question. You are asking whether your entry could be a previously published story in other online/physical platforms or ...
I wanted to say -- 'I hope everything went OK!' But I read the rest then. It is a worldwide problem. My mom also got a hip surgery, and she felt like ...
If I were you, I would go surfing and catch a nice swell. Look mate, I am from Madrid and my city has no access to the sea, but I understand how it fe...
It was deep, Benkei. I feel that you were melancholic or even sad when you wrote the poem... It remains a small detail to know, at least to me. For a ...
If I am not mistaken, although newsletters are a good idea, I guess the draft has to be written by someone on a regular basis. This takes time and eff...
You are not disruptive, Amity. I appreciate how you take care of this activity each year. You know I also become too involved and even energic or anxi...
Well, they couldn't have known about The Shoutbox either because it is also not visible unless you sign in. I think it is a correct and understandable...
I understand what your point is, Christoffer. I agree that our style flourishes when we read other writers. I think it would be mediocre to say that t...
The fact that you haven't found your style yet doesn't mean you are not an artist. Tell me, how do you feel when you behold the sunset? Don't you feel...
It will not be like that this time. It is about having fun and practicing our creativity. Do not hesitate to write something or even be ashamed of the...
I thought -- 'Mate, I don't recall reading that passage of Adam and Eve in the Bible'. :razz: We have to never disregard the power of an apple. That's...
Yeah, exactly. :grin: Ah! Gotcha. I had to search on Google because I hadn't the image in my mind. We say 'pan mollete' here. Exactly, they are cheap ...
