Thanks for this post krnel! I personally hate labels. How can we label human beings when we constant change. We are no more the same person today than we were yesterday. We need to stop labeling ourselves and others if we want to grow and open our hearts and minds
I don't have a problem with them in certain uses, but my point was more so that it can suck us into pigeon holes rather than looking at things more accurately. Some things about ourselves change, while others don't now but may later. We can describe those things. Just because we do change doesn't mean we can't. Using more specific wording to describe ourselves is always better than a general label.
