sorry WandS, not picking your post specifically, just using it to stay on this side topic, kinda…..this could be a good topic / discussion in itself,. maybe "average" ppl don't repel abilities per se, but ground / distract those with them to the point they are weakened, in a lot of belief systems it is believed that to enhance or reach ones full potential one should never marry or be tied down or distracted by worldly pursuits..... so if ones purpose or desire is to ignore or lesson these abilities it could be good, but if ones desire is to further or strengthen their abilities it could be a hinderance... to get better or focus on something you surround yourself with others to learn from or else you get stagnant.... anyone have any other ideas, opinions, theories, is the old ways just an unneeded discipline or is there something to these beliefs.?
