Intro: Ying Yang in China is about balance in life as well as the hereafter. It means good with bad, male and female, opposites, heaven and hell. One cannot be without the other, there must be a balance of black and white, day with night. In Cantonese, a Chinese dialect of southern coastal China it would be pronounced "Yum-Yeung." You may have seen it in symbolic form of a circle with two halves swirling around each other, one black and one white. |

Very well done, love this piece. I have studied a Korean martial art called Hapkido, learned about ying yang and being well balanced. Great job Steve. |
