Leaning into the gift of discomfort

Is remaining silent when I want to give an opinion

Is also speaking openly when I fear the power of my voice

Is welcoming resistance as an opportunity

Is walking away from those old, comfortable habits – the easy ones that never bring better results

Is being the observer of the emptiness that hungers for something even more miraculous, more shining, more full of love and bliss than I ever imagined I was worthy of

It’s all right there, just beyond that “gnawing void”

And so I welcome its gift and lean on in!
