If we had to list your favorite places based on where you spend the most time,
Your growth edge would top the list.
Out, walking headfirst into the things that scare you most.
Becoming who you must become to realize your longings.
Leaning into whatever’s calling you
With all you’ve got.
You’ve never done anything else
And if you’ve dabbled in another way, you soon tired of the boredom,
Stagnation, the feeling of dying on the vine.

No, you’re made for the arena.
For the fire.
Where you feel at home because you burn so hard inside for all of it.
For experience. Dreams. Adventure. Novelty. Transcendence.
For expansion. Assemblage. Life.
Wild spaces reflect the wild in you and soothe your lust for life
By meeting it, welcoming it, absorbing it.

And this growth edge that you so rarely leave
Always comes with growing pains
Struggle. Resistance. Fear. Discomfort.

But remember, comfort can never be the goal.
And it is anathema to being here.
Comfort, in excess, is stagnation.

But don’t let me stop you from designing it in.
Ask for help.
Seek grace in the struggle.
Ease in hard things.

But do not ask it to be easy.
Do not ask it to be comfortable.

These are not the games we’re playing.

You know it in your mind.
Please remember it in your bones.

Rise. Grow. Evolve.
Feel the pain of it.
The friction tells you you’re in motion.

In motion, pulled by longings, to a destiny we can only imagine ♥️
