Do the prejudices…

we grew up with remain and calcify as we grow older? This is a question that came up when discussing issues that tend to poke at and periodically trouble our minds, especially when thinking about choices that impact or might impact our lives. I realized that if we are not careful, things we heard when growing up right into adulthood have a way of creeping in and influencing our decisions about our friends, including the choice of our life partner, the educational institutions we choose to go to, our jobs, and the places we choose to work in and live in. Some of these may be useful, some may be pointers, some may be red rags, some may be detrimental, some may be downright stumbling blocks. Very, very necessary, therefore, to examine each one of these prejudices and push them right out of our heads, if necessary, or tweak them if need be. But, difficult as it maybe, and often it is so, we need to do this…it’s imperative we do this for ourselves…
