Label is a descriptive marker placed on an object for easy identification, its very handy as it saves time, but we don't use labels on objects anymore, we use it on people,
Just like the way wearing of hijab triggers the fear of being blown up in some people, someone is stupid because they don't talk or they're freewheeling, someone is sick because she ain't fat and plump, black because he has broad nose, nigga because he's black, chink because he's Chinese, or someone has evil tendencies because he doesn't share same beliefs with you, we all come from different backgrounds and its normal to have different outlook about life, what might be annoying to you is endearing to others, and vice versa,
I know they ain't gonna be a time when we finally start looking past the labels,
The world will always be a giant school yard where they're the bullies and the bullied so the labels would stick, that doesn't mean its cool,
I for one thank my stars that
like your words dont get to them anymore and they just regard it as what it is, "Just words" we don't need to take it heart, people would always talk, its either you or them, what matters is the knowledge that thier words dont define you because they don't know who you're, they don't have the innate idea about you or your persona, dont let it change you either, because the moment they say it you're left with the hurt and letting it get to you or change you means they control your life. People might call you mad, bad, weak, cloddish, nitwit, its okay to cry or suck it up since we all have different level of resilience but make sure you never let it get to you or define you because they don't know you nor have they walked a mile in your shoes. Live your life by your rules not thiers.
