Labels

Think before you give people labels…Labels aren’t just names you call people, labels are your way of saying that’s how we see them. That’s who they are. But what if those make someone who they aren’t?  What would happen if everyone thought about what they are calling someone before they said it? The word slut given out to girls that haven’t had a kiss before. Ugly given out to boys who don’t have money for clothes. These names can change a person, make them think that’s who they are. What you see of them is like a zoomed up screen, if you zoom out your whole perspective will be changed. The girl you called a slut based on a fraction of her life, has major depression and gets abused at home. The boy you called ugly based on his clothes has to provide for his family and lost his house. Everyone has a story behind their smiles and tears. so before you make labels to someone you think you know; maybe think about you are really doing. Because really… you don’t know them at all. You don’t know their life outside of what you see. You don’t take the time to talk to them or ask them. You make a quick judgement and assume that’s how they act, but they put on an act. They want to fit in. Everyone does.
