Dance is a moving mindfulness meditation, an embodied prayer, a self-emptying surrender to the eternity of the moment, a deep bow to the bewildering grandeur of what is.

Wait just a minute! I thought that was the mystique of tango: the freedom to hold an absolute stranger in your arms for ten minutes without having to explain yourself.
