    Original editorial step

  3. Offer words

    Say: 'I meet this place with attention; may my presence be a good one.'

    Offers an original greeting without importing another tradition's spirit names.

    Original editorial step

  4. Make a commitment

    Choose one small act of care, such as taking your own litter away.

    Connects communion with responsibility.

    Original editorial step

To close

Carry it forward.

Thank the place and depart without leaving offerings or materials.
