Tango can be pure joy. I know this to be true because I have experienced it. Transcendent joy. I'm still such a rank beginner that the joy is measured in moments rather than minutes but it's enough.
Oh no! I am sad for you because I know how it feels. The good thing is that you know that the joyful tango-moment will pop up again - sometimes when you least expect it. So keep dancing, painted lady! (I have just come back from my tango class and mini-milonga. A tiny moment was shared. Which was lovely.)
Thank you anairam! I will hang in there and you're no doubt right, it'll appear again. I hope so. So glad to hear that you shared a lovely moment. It makes it all worthwhile, doesn't it? :o)
The main things which seem to me important on their own account, and not merely as means to other things, are knowledge, art, instinctive happiness, and relations of friendship or affection.
Bertrand Russell
The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
