I Am Not Your Stereotypical Anything

A Bundle of Contradictions

By: celebriticat
Written on January 9th, 2009

I have never fit neatly into any category, although I desperately tried for a lot of years. I thought there was something wrong with me.

Now, I know that the "wrong" lies in trying to pigeonhole people.

Letting go of our need to categorize everything opens us to love and accept all.

    And you're one of those people that like to type "lol" and "whatever".



    See, there's categories for us all... :)

    Exactly! And to drop our judgments of ourselves allows us to freely express who we really are. And when that happens, the world is enriched. Each of us is a unique blend of gifts, talents and viewpoints. No one else can express that. If we don't give the gift of who we are, our world just gets cheated out of it. And we cheat ourselves, as well.
