The feel of serenity out in the wilderness all alone.

The feel (taste) of a good steak cooked over an open camp fire, that 45 mins to cook.

The sound of an engine as it hits the sweet spot of power its RPMS
The sound of a great rock band
The feeling of shifting my own gears while driving
<The feel of a beautiful woman's body all around me>
The pleasure of blasting away at a video game after a stressful day of whatever
The rush I get from playing Airsoft
The light from a single candle in the darkness of an empty house
The feeling of laying rubber with an 18-year-old truck
The company of friends
The demise of an enemy
The feeling you get after having push-mowed your entire lawn in a single day and you get to pull off your headphones and savor the quiet of it all, realizing that even an ugly overgrown yard can be made beautiful by just sweating on it a little.

The feeling of the sails filling,

The feeling of weather helm on the tiller

how about that feeling of helping someone on the roadside. to me it doesnt get much better than being able to use the things ive learned to help someone.

the feeling of an audience cheering when you've just kicked their butt.

The feeling I get after coming home from work and my son running up to me smiling saying "Daddy's home" and wanting a big hug. Nothing makes me feel luckier.

The feeling, as I drift off to sleep, that I survived another one. Then that feeling is ruined by the realization that I have to get up in a few short hours and do it all over again...-TD

The feeling of my 600cc two stroke sled flying down a powdery field during a crisp winters day.

The feeling of your first deer (or any animal) shot on your own.

The feeling of a project vehicle roaring to life, knowing you did all the work yourself.

The feeling of a friend sticking around after throwing up from your first big dip.

The feeling (smell) of a bon fire with all your best friends.

The feeling of crawling down a hallway with one of my fellow brothers, while getting pushed closer and closer to the floor every inch you go by the intense heat and smoke of a building that is on fire, hoping not to find anyone inside, and everybody making it home the same way we came.
