I have also had some pretty big hops, but I think what i remember most was the really super blissful experience. The first year of flying was just sooo awesome. I looked forward to flying as the most enchanting part of each day. I felt such amazing bliss. I assumed that most everyone had that experience. When we first got our sidhis and starting the flying block, I was seated next to two other ladies. We all started flying in perfect unison. For all three of us, it was our first flying experience. How could you orchestrate that? Also, I remember that whenever someone was about to hop for the first time, they were like a magnet and the whole group would immediately be hopping in unison around that person. The whole flying hall would just go crazy. It was a total blast. I don't think anyone could mood make that experience into existence. > > > > > > __________________________________ > Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! > http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs > ------------------------ Yahoo!
