Learning from mistakes [199]

My eyes were still closed as I was only concentrating on the job I had in hand. I could feel the flow of energy and I could feel the mud getting moist under my hand. The coolness of the ground suddenly turned warm and moist providing the proof that I was doing the job properly.

And then finally, I felt something wet against my palm and I knew my work was done. My eyes flew open and I smiled at my success. The once solid and cool ground was now nothing but a suspension of wet mud and water. I could feel the warmth under my hand too. I quickly withdrew my hand back from it.

"I did it." I half laughed, because I was expecting something totally opposite. 

For starters I didn't have much confidence in me. Finn had already informed me that it might take time and I knew I might fail in my first attempt. But now when my job was done without fail, I couldn't contain my happiness anymore and jumped up from the ground, I had been in contact with.
