Breathe in, hold, breathe out, hold.

focus...

feel the force within...

Breathe in, hold, breathe out, hold.

I feel the hairs on my arms spike,

The energy surrounds me,

As I move, I can feel the force around me,

It is part of me, humming within my veins.

Breathe in, hold, breathe out, hold.

The excitement builds...

I cannot believe this is really happening!

I hold my lightsaber.

With a practiced movement of my wrist, I start the spin.

It falls.

Maybe the force is not so strong in me.

Again.

Breathe in, hold, breathe out, hold....
