Default Few seconds of the magic

I had my first intro to instrument flying "under the hood." Okay hood on right after rotation and did some turns etc. I had trimmed the airplane right before my CFI told me to take the hood off. And bam, wow I was just stunned at what I saw! I had never experienced this feeling, I guess you could call it the awe or the magic of being in the air. I was flying hands off for a few seconds and I was speechless. Then back to work. Just wanted to share. It was neat.
