Your question What have I outgrown and not admitted?

The spread

  1. The rim Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
  2. The middle Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.
  3. The bottom Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.

The grounds are read the old way, from rim to bottom, which means the reading gets more honest as it goes.

Ladder sits in the middle and names the thing you keep re-reading: a message, a contract, a message about a contract.

At the bottom, where the reading gets honest, sits the shape of money: not a crisis, an adjustment.

What to do

Name the feeling out loud to one person.

Timing

Do not decide before the morning, and do not wait past the month.

Take with you

You may outgrow a room and still love the people in it.
