Symmetry or Asymmetry?

    hi.
    once upon a time, jennifer and i were very keen international ballroom dancers. however because of this and that we had, very sadly, to end our connection with this sport.
    however, from it i developed a tangential interest and admiration in the argentine tango.
 
    it is only now that i realized what it was that it is about the agentine tango that had this powerful tangential hold over me.
 
    international ballroom dancing is strictly symmetrical in all the forms ot its variations.
    the argentine tango is its contrapunctum. it is in its essence completely asymmetrical.
    the meta realization for me is that it is in its assymetry is the beauty of the form of its moves.
