“Expansion is a signal, not a command.”
You don’t need to act on expansion.
You only need to notice it.
Staying with the feeling trains discernment.
The feeling lingers,
unchased.
Purposeful Journaling Practice:
Describe expansion without deciding what it means.

Tomorrow, we notice where contraction enters.

This is clean and wise. Naming expansion as a signal rather than a command protects discernment from urgency. Staying with the feeling instead of using it feels honest—and rare. The practice invites attention without agenda, which is exactly what keeps expansion from turning into self-deception.

Clear and disciplined. Treating expansion as information rather than instruction protects discernment from impulse. Staying with the feeling without assigning meaning keeps attention honest. This is quiet work, and it shows.

That was at our boathouse before it burned down three years ago. It’s gorgeous there, it’s in Oregon.
