Expansion is not better than Contraction.
Like Happiness is not better than Sadness.
Sometimes we, people, measure our level of success by how happy we feel.
Both are just human experiences.
Let's look at the moon, our breath, the ocean.
All the time IN and OUT, expansion and contraction, and all the countless states in-between.
Why do we need to put ourselves in a concept of needing to be a particular way?
Consciousness experiences itself through everything including my human form. It has no interest to only be happy, or to only expand.
In the longer run, we suffer when we identify with Happiness or Sadness, by having a preference or out of habit.
When I see that neither of them are Me, what does it matter?
For this, I need to wake up from believing that "I AM happy" or "I AM sad".
I AM is just experiencing what is.
