I came home from work one day and forgot to shut my garage door. my dogs have a dog door in the garage that leads to the backyard. My dogs came in through the door and they ran out of the garage. After a slight while I wanted my dogs to come inside and I realized that they weren't there in the back yard, so I got in my truck and drove around the neighborhood and to the park that they always walk to and I couldn’t find my dog.

    As an agent of either utter destruction or fruitful prosperity, ambivalence serves as the catalyst to separate the before and after of an individual's life. At the end of the line, that path that was once shrouded in confusion becomes clear, and the outcome of each potential choice can be seen. In Sinclair Ross’ “The Painted Door”, the treacherous setting embodies an edge of escalating ambivalence in Ann’s character as she is awakened to the reality of her routine life, ultimately causing her to spiral into the rising storm of her suffocating loneliness and reckless desperation. As the impending external blizzard begins, Ann faces her own internal battle over the opportunities presented in her emotionally destitute state.…

    To feel alone, completely, and utterly alone, can be a crushing sensation. It can destroy a person from the inside out, and drive them completely mad. And if you couple that with being confined, you have a formula that can only conclude in disaster. In The Painted Door, through Ann, we see that when one feels neglected, trapped, and alone, it can drive a person to do things outside of their normal behavior. And if one gives into cravings, consequences that may not have been imagined could be brought to fruition.…

    When it comes to wrought iron doors Arizona residents realise that they are more than just decorative; they are a security feature that looks good and allows light and air in while keeping them safe. Many people keep their doors closed for privacy, but if your home does not face a busy street or a neighbor it is really nice to leave it open sometimes, especially when the weather is pleasant. Feeling that stream of fresh air or a balmy breeze drifting down the hall is very refreshing. However, few people would leave a door open without having their security door locked. That way they can enjoy the breeze and still have peace of mind that no one can come in unasked.…
