You tend to appreciate something more when you can relate to it - TopicsExpress



          

You tend to appreciate something more when you can relate to it better. I used to think that Van Gogh paintings were crap that a child could finger paint. Then years ago, I went to Amsterdam and tried a special brownie in a coffee shop. At the urging of a friend, we went to the Van Gogh museum, where 1/2 hour later the brownie made me feel a little dizzy. I banged into a doorway that nearly took off my ear and I saw stars. Right around the corner, I saw the painting "Starry Night". I understood it perfectly. It was so beautiful I cried. uploads2.wikipaintings.org/images/vincent-van-gogh/the-starry-night-1889%281%29.jpg
