Act 3, Resolution

There is a brand of popcorn called Act II. Never quite understood that one.

Act 1 is character definition and plot set up. Act 2 is conflict. Things fall apart. Act 3 is the resolution. The hero saves the day and people smile.

Childhood is Act 1. Adulthood is Act 2. Retirement is Act 3. Or, maybe having kids is Act 3. Perhaps one event's Act 3 leads straight to another event's Act 1. some say death is life's Act 3. You get to go to heaven, hopefully, and relax.

I'm off to have some conflict flavored popcorn.
