Did you ever noticed something about yourself that surprised you?

in Heaven
I was looking around at the art in my living area the other day, when I noticed it was all reproductions of the human form. I went through the rest of the house, and every painting or statue in every room was the same, including my garden art. I have just chosen art I like over the years, and had never noticed that it all depicted humans in one way or another. Why I was not aware of this before stuns me. It may be because it is in different areas of my home.

    I realized some time ago that almost all the fiction I read and reread for pleasure is by women authors. It doesn’t matter what the genre is—mystery, science fiction, etc. Very odd.

    Whereas, apart from a couple of thangka, and two pages from a catalogue (showing suitable outfits for Japanese gentlemen c 1900) everything on the walls is a landscape or still life.

    If I'm posting pix on FB they are scrupulously scrubbed of any human presence.
