Dve podobné telá sa snažia navzájom spojiť. Kvôli magnetickému poľu okolo nich, priťahuje ich k sebe opačné odpudzovanie. Pocit odporu voči niečomu je prítomný súčasne s túžbou byť k tomu priťahovaný. Vzťah medzi telami sa neustále vyvíja. Počúvajú, nasledujú a postupne si uvedomujú, kedy viesť a kedy sa držať naspäť, aby si získali dôveru. Dokážete ich vidieť oddelene? Prvé závisí od druhého, druhé však vždy pokračuje ďalej. S ktorým súcitíte? Nakoniec sa stretávajú v bode svojej podobnosti.

Two similar bodies are trying to connect with each other. With the magnetic space around them, they are attracted by the opposite repulsion—the feeling of repugnance toward something with a desire to be pulled toward it. The relationship between them is continually evolving. Listen, follow and acknowledge when to lead and hold back to gain trust. Moved by the ongoing soft energy in the space, and even when it stops, it continues within the space around the audience. Here, the force resists relatively to the motion between two bodies in contact. Can you see them separately? The first one depends on the other, however, the second one always keeps going. With whom do you empathize? In the end, they meet at the point of their similarity.
