I feel this deeply, especially with loved ones and friends that don't understand or seem to not want to understand.
And that's ok but in the last week a few situations arised where this really hit home for me, all it made me feel was sadness. I understand we all grow and change in different ways but when its with the one's who you were once close with its harder to let go.
Thanks Adrianna for this post 💓
✨When we talk with people who strongly follow the official view of the world ,science, school, religion, media, or politics ,a pattern often appears. As soon as the conversation goes beyond what they consider “normal,” tension shows up. This can look like nervous laughter, irritation, sarcasm, changing the subject, or even personal attacks.
What is interesting is that you don’t need to say anything extreme. Just mentioning UFOs, alternative history, natural healing, big pharmaceutical companies, free energy, media manipulation, or spiritual awakening can make some people react as if they are being personally threatened. Simply hearing these words can cause visible stress: tight jaws, sudden silence, or a quick change of topic.
For many people, these topics are uncomfortable not because they are silly, but because they challenge their familiar view of reality. Their world is built on authority: TV knows, school teaches, doctors heal, religion tells the truth, science knows best, and life is logical and predictable. Any information that questions this ,even in the form of a question ,can feel like an attack.
People who are deeply rooted in this system often were not taught how to think critically. They were taught to repeat what is “accepted” and “approved.” This does not mean they are unintelligent , it means their minds work in a different way.
It becomes more painful when this resistance comes from people we love: parents, partners, siblings, or friends. Someone who loves us can suddenly feel afraid of simple conversations about other possibilities. They have nothing to gain by defending the system, yet they react as if their safety is in danger. Why?
The reason is psychological. The human mind protects itself. It avoids information that could destroy its picture of the world. It is easier to ignore new ideas than to accept that one may have been wrong for years. Accepting this could mean changing beliefs, lifestyle, and past decisions. For many people, this feels too heavy emotionally.
So they say: “I don’t want to talk about this,” “Why go there?” or “That’s nonsense.” Not because they truly studied the topic ,but because they are not ready to face it.
There is also something called cognitive dissonance. This happens when new information conflicts with what someone already believes. This feels uncomfortable, so the mind escapes by laughing, getting angry, or rejecting the topic. There is also fear of being rejected by others. If someone belongs to a traditional family or social group, changing beliefs may mean losing acceptance. So they choose what feels safe and familiar.
For many people, staying in the system is a way to survive. If they were never encouraged to ask questions, if independent thinking was punished, then alternative ideas can bring up fear and old emotional pain. Questions that feel exciting to you may feel threatening to them.
That is why it is important not to force awakening on others. If someone does not want to listen, it does not mean they are stupid, bad, or controlled. It means they are not ready and are protecting their mind the best way they can. What feels interesting to you may feel dangerous to them.
Sometimes the wisest thing is to give people space ,without judging them and without pressure. You can plant a seed, but you cannot force it to grow.
What feels obvious to you may shock others. And what feels normal to them may already feel false to you. Awakening should not become another fight. True awakening does not shout ,it waits.
Awakened people handle these topics differently. They have faced uncomfortable truths and did not run away from them. Instead of avoiding questions, they asked them. Instead of denying, they connected ideas. They accept that the world is complex and not always logical. They let old beliefs fall apart and built their own understanding.
They do not claim to know everything , but they have the courage to not know and to keep searching.🩵
