The strength, force, or extreme degree of something, such as light, emotion, effort, or activity.
From Latin 'intensus' (stretched, tight) + '-ity', from 'intendere' (to stretch toward). It originally related to being tightly stretched or concentrated.
Intensity is like turning up the ‘volume’ on any experience—light, effort, feelings. The same intensity that makes someone seem ‘too much’ in one setting can make them extraordinary in another.
