But really. Where would we be without tension?

Tension?

[g_money132]

What sort of tension are you referring to? And did you experience a disproportionate amount of tension recently, or what?

I wouldn't say so, but I recently had cause to reflect on how often it comes up in art...and life too, I suppose.

Wait; I'll even be clear for once. I just watched Walk the Line, and the movie was essentially about the (sexual, in case it wasn't obvious) tension between Johnny Cash and June Carter. If it hadn't been that, it would have been something else; there were certainly other tensions in the movie. And so I thought, What would we do without tension? Isn't life, after all, pretty much the same way? Tension and resolution are what make life interesting. Or at least, they're some of it.
