Forbidden Grounds

Why is it that we fall for the forbidden, we want what we can't have and we crave the unallowed? Something about them, or it, makes its appeal stronger. Some of the best relationships in films have spawned from forbidden grounds - Romeo and Juliet, 40 days and 40 nights, the Titanic. And even though these are films, well, its all too true in everyday life. If we are handed something on a platter it is less exciting and we take it for granted. Whereas if we strive to do the seemingly impossible for something, for someone, the getting of it, him, life appeals to us so much more.
We, seem to need adventure, problems, excitment, in order to live a happy life.
