Labels

Well, I have a life thingy to publish influenced by a movie I saw last night. Maybe you can figure out which one. Also, I was walking around and sitting around Priory Park, and was thinking about this. Just spending some time on my own, thinking about things, and the way they go. Anyway, I'm being really deep, and it's going to get deeper as per usual with my life thingys. Well, whatever, here you go, my new life thingy called Labels.

Life seems to be full of labels. Full of barriers dividing the world. We are told not to judge a book by it's cover, but we often do. We never get to know people, we just automatically label them something, like the jock, the princess, the nerd, the basket case, or the criminal. Then you get to know them, and find out what it's like to be them, to take a walk in their shoes. Then the labels start to disappear. They start to go away. You start to accept people, and get to know them for who they are and not who they're label says they are. People are unique, and don't all fit neatly into one little category. They are can't be labeled and shoved into categories. We judge books by covers, we don't look past, and read the story behind the cover, behind the mask. If only people could take the time, and read the book, and discover the person behind the mask, maybe we'd be better off. But, no, the world decides to look at the cover, and move on. Well, stand out from the world, read the book, and discover other people and let other people discover who you are. Discover that the world isn't just defined by labels, that people don't fit neatly into categories, and there is more. So, maybe instead of looking at the cover of the book, at the mask covering up a person, you can read the book and discover who they are.
