We don’t like tension. It’s uncomfortable, unsettling, and we want it resolved, preferably quickly. But some of the most important moments in our lives happen in the tension: the space between the question and the answer, the decision and its consequences, the pain and the healing. What if holding tension, rather than rushing to solve it, is actually a crucial act? What if it’s in that in-between space where transformation happens?
