How do you stretch your mind when surrounded by closed minded people?
This is a question driving me mad right now as I want to learn more about the world but am constantly burdened by family that refuses to see beyond the old perceptions of what is right and wrong.
I cannot judge people on their life styles as long as they are not harming anyone with the possible exception of themselves I do not have the right.
Why must others try and force me to believe as they do when I have made plain I am not of their opinion?
It's very depressing to listen to others speak of how they would disown their own children should they not follow a path their parent believes in or a sexual orientation. I cannot say I will do this as I am not prepared to throw away someone I love for something I do not think they can control.
