I know most people have heard it before, but I really think people put too much on labels. That means labels of ANY kind. What it means to be WHATEVER you are or choose to be is completely defined by YOU. How should a 33 going on 34 year old woman, who feels drawn to a vegan lifestyle, is health-conscious, is interested in natural living, is active in the LGBTQIA community, and a mother to a 13 year, who considers herself a peace maker and an enlightened Spirit, in a committed adult relationship, who believes in FREEDOM and the human experience conduct herself on a daily basis?
Should she come in early, stay away from mainstream restaurants, never eat cake, throw away her make-up, not find traits beautiful in other human beings, never feel sexy, never get angry, not admit that no one has the answers, never say "hey that person has a point." and never question each and everything she has ever been told or ever told another?
I think we take things wayyy too seriously people. We are all here taking in our own human experiences, traveling on our own journeys. We can shift, change, add, remove, transform, define, redefine, teach, learn, un-teach, un-learn, understand and be totally confused by ourselves whenever we want to. It's all part of the process... let up! Give yourself AND others a brake! I guarantee that most of us won't feel so strong about half of the things we are passionate about today in 10 years from now. Remind yourself that you are ever changing... and that it is a GOOD THING... and then just GO WITH THE FLOW.
