Living in integrity with our values is uncomfortable.

Of course it is.

People who don’t share your values will judge you.

The dominating culture will punish you.

Righteous discomfort honors that. It says, Listen.

You are going to be uncomfortable either way. 

So if you’re going to experience discomfort, 

which discomfort do you choose?

The discomfort that comes with staying small

going along, and taking what you’re given?

Or the discomfort that stretches you and

expands you into being who you really want to be? 

Mentioned:

Poem 133: The Summer Day, by Mary Oliver

Make Magic:

Righteous discomfort works because we,

all of us, exist at choice. Always.

You can A L W A Y S choose to

reject the discomfort of conforming and giving in

and embrace the righteous discomfort of

being your whole, authentic, magical self.
