NOVT book: acceptance of differences.
Traditional: choices (go with your head or go with your heart)

Joined bodies form a diamond shape  4 sides  stability

Couple has a serene look to them. They match  2 sides of a whole. YET: woman is shorter than man (differences, and acceptable ones: yin/yang).
