When everyone just "feels" something

The boring draft

After the test, I felt relief washing over me.

Before the recital, Mia felt a flutter of stage fright.

On stage, she felt the bright lights pressing down.

By the end of the song, she felt pure pride.

Watching her, I felt happiness for my friend.

Later, walking home, we both felt the cool evening air.

At dinner, I felt this was a day I would remember.

The power upgrade

After the test, I sensed relief washing over me.

Before the recital, Mia wrestled with a flutter of stage fright.

On stage, she experienced the bright lights pressing down.

By the end of the song, she radiated pure pride.

Watching her, I brimmed with happiness for my friend.

Later, walking home, we both savoured the cool evening air.

At dinner, I knew this was a day I would remember.
