I am in need of a revelation. I can go my whole life without knowing the truth about somes things, but there are somethings I need to know. Does a person need to be with someone that does not allow them to grow? I have always believed in myself, and I will not deny that having support helps with that. People are complex. They have their own reasons, ways, and understandings. I would imagine that some of the reasons for a lack of common ground among people is due to people not wanting to believe it exists. I am a human being. I do not perceive myself to be better than anyone. But, having divisive spiritual beliefs is nonsense. I am better than that!

No nobody is allowed to be with someone who is not open-minded. It is a good thing that you believed in yourself and you should always do. Spiritual beliefs is something that we all have different opinions towards it, but in the end we must all learn to accept each others views. We were all created differently and we must learn to accept one another as they are. Running from the truth is not helpful, instead it makes wanna explode afterwards when you have got too many things bottled up inside of you waiting to be burst out.
Yes you are human and therefore you should be treated and be judged as one. Just be yourself and do the things that your heart desires always. :)

I think we don't need to be with someone who doesn't allow us to grow. Love and being faithful are wonderful, but there is a limit, like when it makes love and being faithful towards yourself impossible. Sometimes on of us in the relationship grows more quickly than the other one who doesn't grow at all. If they can't grow together, it's too painful, and we are not only social beings but also free individuals. Maybe once we had a lot in common, and learnt a lot together, but sometimes the relationship seems to be there to show and teach us what our own REAL values and beliefs are.

I guess it is really necessary to let the other person grow.We shouldn't stay the same forever especially when we are still immature or narrow-minded.We should grow in order to become a better person.We are all different people.We can't let them believe what we believe.Maybe,we just need to respect one another. It's okay to guide each other especially when they are asking for help or support but not commanding them to do this and that,believe this and that and so on. In the end, we have to grow in our own.

Pleasant day to you. We individuals - meant for great things and to be curious at many things still cannot comprehend and know the things from the heavens above and from the earth below. Why? It is because the world is also a complex thing that is in dire need to be observed not in just a millennium or a decade but for eternity as there are laws of nature that is very unpredictable. Bottom point - to know everything, one has to be immortal.
People ought to be with someone that supports each other and not disallowing growth of each other. When people pull us down instead of pull us up or push us up, we should politely walk away from them, they render you useless as they disallow growth and you will not be able to do the great and good things you have done. So stay open minded, don't run away from the truth as it will always set you free. Good day to you.

Somethings we can only believe in and that is our truth. Finding out the truth of something is that you have facts of what may or may not exist. If say, for example, you're in a relationship and a friend tells you how bad of a person the person you are in a relationship with. Now say, this said friend has prove that this person is bad for you. You have proof (from your friend) that the person you are in a relationship with is not good for you; however, this person is good to you and for whatever the reason may be, you don't believe what the friend has told you about the person you're in a relationship with. Now that would be running from the truth, because you have proof that the person you're with is bad for you, yet you still stick with that person. Now there are such things as feelings, emotions and beliefs that can't be proven right or wrong, they can be disputed but with these feelings no one can be right or wrong. So if someone disagrees with your feelings, emotions or beliefs then that person is not allowing you to grow!
