Not a lack and not a refusal Written by Barbara (10/18/2005 5:53 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, You're right, penned by Line

I'm talking about the idea of 'refusing' to share the feelings, not whether or not they exist. Anne doesn't refuse to share her feelings--she just has no one with whom she can share them. She has bursts of feelings which she holds in--because there is no outlet for them, not because she does not wish to demonstrate them, which is the impression her cousin give.
