Prompt: Changing Beliefs
This comes from a random hidden place in my mind...."Do your beliefs change over the years as you change and develop?"
I know we are humans, and if we are living a life, we are always changing, growing, developing, learning.... And I was wondering how those changes have been reflected in your spiritual life....

Yes I have to say my beliefs do change over time. Not so much now that I'm older, but I can't say it doesn't happen. From ages 15-24 my beliefs changed drastically and I was really learning a lot from family, friends, and online sources. I feel to spiritually grow you always need to be open to new perspectives. The best way to do that is socialize with other people of various beliefs. Even if you don't believe as they do, you still see a new perspective and are more knowledgeable about other beliefs.
I totally agree that you need to stay open to new perspectives in order to grow spiritually.

I have found that it has been quite educational for me to listen to others inform me what was ritht for me as far as what I should believe.
ReplyDeleteOne night though, when I sat in silence there were many other worlds that opened up to me and not one of them discriminates against others.
I am so happy that these worlds were revealed to me!
Thank you so much for sharing this good post!
