Call me silly, but I encountered the most incredible feeling as I was shooting in my archery class this morning.
My literary mind struggles to scramble together words that would express the precise feeling, but I fail - miserably. The best I could say is, with growing confidence, I felt when the arrow would go right. Explains a lot, eh? But, I guess I feel very comfortable shooting. Last time, (aka my first time I ever shot an arrow hehe) was very tense. When I pulled back on the string, it felt like I was straining, fighting against the bow. But, this morning, it felt very relaxed and I guess fitting. Any time I did not feel this sense was the times I shot astray. So, I was learning to refrain from releasing if I did not feel that everything was alright.
I dunno. Maybe, with more success I will try to explain this as the class goes on. :D
Besides, it was extraordinarily cool to huddle a group of arrows together so they were all touching each other in the target.
