RE: Optimism at the End of the World #8 : Metaphors and how they "Make or Break" you. (Framing Part 2)
Come to my class and replace all of my language teacher for real !
It amazed me how there are so many people like yourself in this community explain this particular topic better than my professors.
Also, when you mentioned " rain" above, It reminded me of a short story titled " cat in the rain" by Ernest hemmingway. It was about a couple having holiday to Italy.The rain was indicating a downfall between the couple and I remember the professor mentioned something about war too.
But a question, If we write a metaphor, can people disagree or agree with our interpretation?
Of course you can debate the meaning of a word or metaphor but I don't know if it's very productive to debate it, more productive to try and understand anothers understanding of the word to broaden your understanding even if you don't adopt that meanings
