Tension and release is not just a principle for music, literature, or art. It's the rhythm of a meaningful life. Pressure followed by peace. Effort followed by stillness. Struggle followed by joy.
To live well is not to escape tension, but to master it. To live well is not to cling to release, but to savor it. Together, they create a rhythm worth living. In reading my posts carefully, you'll notice this tension and release.
