    "steps": [
      "Choose one manageable situation, not an immediate safety problem. Name what matters about it today in one sentence.",
      "Imagine looking back from ten years, one year, or just one week. Choose a distance that feels comfortable; you do not need to predict your future.",
      "What value or practical lesson might you want to carry forward? What detail might not need more attention right now? ‘I cannot tell’ is allowed.",
      "Return to today. Choose one small action that respects the current impact as well as the longer view."
    ],
    "caution": "Never tell yourself it will not matter. Real grief, injustice, danger, and practical needs do not become trivial with distance. Skip this if future thinking feels distressing.",
    "closing": "A wider view should make room for today, not erase it."
