I'm sorry for brutally interrupting this moment, but I wanted to make sure that you've got that comment of mine, in which I was telling you how happy you've made me by mailing me the DVDs and the most lovely card I've seen recently!
Once again, many, many thanks; sending you kisses and hugs, and if there's something else than words that I can do to thank you, please let me know :)
Oh , I am so sorry for not responding to your comment!!!!! (I am really busy at this moment and this slipped somehow, but of course I don't have any excuse)
I am so glad you received it -and I hope you will like them! I also hope your school work is doing fine!
Oh, please! There is no problem at all; I just thought you didn't get the other comment, so it was quite imperative for me to let you know that everything you've sent me arrived safe and sound. I'm actually displaying the lovely postcard somewhere in full view as we speak! :)
I can't wait to find the time to watch them, actually. As for my school work, it's not fine at all, for now; I really hope I'll be able to come up with something quite soon.
I'm very fond of G. F. Watts. I wonder if you saw an exhibition of his portraits about a year ago at the National Portrait Gallery?
It is a melancholy painting, isn't it, in spite of what it's symbolising. I much prefer this vision of hope than if it had been simply bright. Hope can indeed be blind, but there is something here too of the kind of weary resignation and submission to uncertainty, which does accompany hope, even if it's almost precisely its antithesis.

True. There are few elements here for me - hope is usually applicable in a hard or uncertain situation (happy moments in life don't call for hope) . The other element, hoping for a good outcome is different from believing in it. And finally, hope is tender and peaceful. Also I wonder why she is sitting on something that represents the Earth?
Oh, I really like this explanation! It could be as if hope is encompassing all the earth!

Sadly, I didn't! I don't go to London very often.. I wish I lived closer - there was this amazing "Chinese terracotta warriors" exhibition in the British Museum and all tickets were sold.

Perhaps because hope is universal?
