Pomegranates, Curtains, and Daffodils

As you know, unless you have not been paying any attention at all, I love reading. And writing.
And you know what drives me mad? When people psychoanalyze written work.
"She sipped at her pomegranate juice."
POMEGRANATE JUICE? POMEGRANATES ARE THE FRUIT OF HADES! HER DRINKING HIS SYMBOLIC JUICE MUST MEAN SHE WILL TURN EVIL IN THE END!
Um, no, actually. What the writer meant was, she was drinking pomegranate juice.

"The curtains were blue."
BLUE CURTAINS? THE COLOR BLUE SYMBOLIZES DEEP SADNESS AND REMORSE! SO EVEN THOUGH HE DOESN'T SHOW IT ON THE OUTSIDE, HE'S STILL UPSET ABOUT THE SUDDEN DEATH OF HIS GRANDFATHER AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
No. The curtains were just blue, okay?

"He set the daffodils on the table."
DAFFODILS? DAFFODILS SYMBOLIZE FORGIVENESS IN CHRISTIAN LITERATURE! SO THAT MEANS HE MUST HAVE FORGIVEN HER OF HER MANY WRONGS AND IS TRYING TO CONVEY THIS TO HER BY GIVING HER DAFFODILS.
What he was actually trying to do is to set the daffodils on the table.

Sometimes symbolism isn't really involved.
Deal with it.
