SO uncomfortable!

Discomfort is the gateway to growth.....the doorway where we can step through and be transformed.....and let's be honest nobody wants to be uncomfortable, that is true.....and sometimes life creates situations that cause us to be uncomfortable.....to be thrown into the discomfort......and see where we land on the other side.....and in my old life, I did not like it at all.....having had big life find me before my divorce, and change me, but never fully embracing that feeling of discomfort....and now I KNOW that THAT is the way.....so much clarity is arising in the wake of my recent relationship ending.....and in speaking to another woman that was affected, she too walked away before the fallout, choosing herself and what SHE DESERVED too, just like I did in March.....and well that feels like a graduation of sorts.....a great big act of SELF- LOVE:) Being unwilling to be drained dry this time.....choosing ourselves. And being both emotionally involved with him, having our self love be larger than that love. Knowing that choosing ourselves was paramount this time.....like are you really a woman that does that now? When you see and feel inconsistency.....are met with resistance and deflection......what happens? And well we did what we both had feared we may never do.....a quiet question living inside of us, due to what our past love stories had held.....but when the test arrived, we BOTH passed:) And maybe that was what it was about.....my always digging deep for the purpose.....being given a real life test to prove it all....prove that I am indeed the woman I want to be, feel like I am, all of it......choosing growth over discomfort....but more than that, choosing MYSELF.......finally.....and it was challenging.....I am not going to lie.....it was uncomfortable to have my heart tied up.....and connection, and familiarity right there, and choosing to distance myself and undo it.....and then the powers that be gave me that bombshell moment to confirm that my instincts were correct.....not leaving me to wonder, giving me the truth.....and that feels amazing too......that sweet confirmation.....so my point today is to always choose the discomfort......always.....if you know that it will free you. Even though it is challenging.......even though it seems so daunting......even if it propels you into some place you didn't think you wanted to be, but really needed to be.....choose it.....we can become stagnant or resist change so often......and I have found that sometimes that resistance is met with a universal force that shoves us out of the way......if we don't do it ourselves.....and leaving before I had to be shoved this time feels amazing:) And having a quiet understanding that ALL of it is a part of the story......trusting my story as it unfolds......divinely orchestrated, each instrument having its say. Some days the melody is lovely, and sometimes dissonance arrives......and the instruments clash.....But everyday the symphony is playing our song, every single one:) And we all need to walk the path that makes sense for us, whatever that is.....I believe that too.....Happy Saturday! Hope you get uncomfortable today:) It is worth it!!! xoxo
