Baby steps

[brynndragon]

I'm trying to better understand the concepts of yin, yang, and qi. Here's a small attempt, a baby step toward comprehension:

If yang and yin are as two children on a see-saw, always in balance and always in motion, where is qi? Qi can be found in three places. Qi is the fulcrum of the see-saw, the center-point that both defines the balance between yin and yang and allows for their constant motion. Qi is the force that causes the sea-saw to move, generated by the conflict and cooperation of yin and yang. Finally, qi is the sea-saw itself, the connection between yin and yang without which the dynamic force of their movement could not exist.
