  i just got back from going to the nasher sculpture museum in downtown dallas.

  they are having a showing of a rare collection of picasso paintings and sculptures that everyone is talking about.. i'm starting to wonder... maybe i'm not as cultured as a thought.

  nearly every time i looked at one of his works i found myself thinking: "what the hell was mug smoke'in when he did that?

  Elsewhere, I understand your thinking. I was in the same position, before I studied art. And it's something not easily explained. But once you get to looking at lots of other artists, you will find that each one is unique. It doesn't always have to do with something you have to like. It's a way at looking at art that is an expression of the inner artist. Some abstract paintings are difficult to look at. But usually it brings a mood or atmosphere to the piece. You need to look at composition, form, media used, creativity, uniqueness, expression and overall experience of the artist.

  I saw a 'painting' once that wasn't a painting at all. This artist glued his paint tubes and paint brushes to the canvas rather than using paint. The overal composition was intriging, and unique. It was something totally different and hadn't done before. The 'painting' wasn't large, but sold for 85K

  So each artist is different, and you don't have to like it. It's not about that. It's about an expression of the artist and you look for; What is the artist trying to express. Once you sit down and take a long and good look at the piece, you will find many different features throughout his or her work.

  For Single Ones: Do you ever.........

  .........want to get married again?

  now that we are out of the wtbts, where the mindset is marriage and couples, do you feel the need to be married or get re-married?.

  sometimes, i think, why would i get married again?

  Marriage is quite often rushed into. That's why so many people get divorced these days. The idea of being with someone is almost everyone's desire. Someone special to confide in, someone to be comforted by, some to laugh, and cry with. There is nothing nicer than to come home to a place where there is peace and respect for the other person. Often too much is expected of the other partner. Granted we have our wished and needs and wants, yet we are all individuals who need to be respected for who they are as a person. And not to be expected to be someone who we might like them to be. That is why being friends first for quite some time is quite important. If it turns out to be a relationship where both are comfortable and have mutual respect, then if both decide to live together for a while, which is quite different than just being friends, they owe it to themselves to experience that time together.

  All this takes time and patience. There is nothing more frustrating than to be married to someone that we actually don't get along with, but we just stick it out, because we are married. I think the mistake most people make is that they are not open and upfront with their mate, and live their own life while they are married.

  I have been married for 25 years, and will say that most of those years were good. But due to change in personality over the years, and the other person not recognizing that, we lived seperate lives, though married. Someday in the future I wish to remarry also. I miss being with someone special, and someone that understands me for who I am and what values I have. But I am in no hurry, I have all a lot of time on my hands and I need to be sure this time.

  Elsewhere,

  I agree, and if you are deep in the pocket to afford a shrink to help you with this, you will also ensure yourself a place in spiritual paradise.
