Who we are

"The lunatic, the lover, and the poet are of imagination all compact."
-A Midsummer Night's Dream


Over the course of my life, I have heard a great deal of stereotypes, a great deal of assumptions. Is the society we live in, too stereotypical?

Some people are constantly frustrated by the way our world labels people. I say, the world will keep on labeling you, as long as you label the world. I've met so many remarkable people who break the stereotypes of yesteryear, they do not conform to what "they're supposed to be."

Can the runner dance? Can the A+ student play football? Can the singer achieve their goals? Yes they can. Stereotypes are created to be broken. None of us conform completely to a stereotype; we are all unique in a very own way. This is what humanity is about.

We need to celebrate diversity, not uniformity. If we were all the same, then humanity would not be as rich and dynamic as it is today. Who are we? We are what we choose to be.
