few would have achieved,
this heightened sensation.

" In the zone "
They have various meanings,
yet, it take time and efforts,
to reach, pinnacle of our feelings.

Some might be more attuned,
a product of their upbringing,
or being genetically gifted,

Flow...
A term coined by psychologist,
to define this mental stimulation,
the state, of complete absorption,
being fully engaged, complete immersion.

Just passion is not enough,
it has to be more challenging,
not difficult or overwhelming,

And we would enjoy without expecting,
the experiences are rewarding enough,
helping us learn, improving our skills
using the obstacles, as stepping stones.

Flow...

yet, can give us directions,
in professional or creative pursuits,
reaching a state, of an optimal experience.
