Hands Off the Rail
Fear can make holding on feel like the only safe choice, even when the grip itself keeps the body braced and unsteady. On a high imagined walkway, clenched fingers gradually loosen until one fingertip, and then nothing, rests on the rail. Courage emerges not as a dramatic leap, but as a hand learning it can hover, return and try again.
Grounded and even, the same calm weight on every line, present without pushing, steady when the moment isn't.
