It is funny how we tend to put everything in categories. It is part of our routine to give names to everything: a cute dog, a nice house, a boring subject.
However, when we do that with humans, it doesn’t always end up great. People feel that they are defined by what others say about them, and they will just do the things that are suitable for their ‘category’. A person who is considered to be mean will do bad things because it would be too much of an effort to try and change the way others see them. A shy person probably won’t try to speak to the new kid in class just because it’s not part of their character to socialize. So, we don’t change what we do because we think that’s who we are, and we are like this because we don’t change it.
Einstein was right in his theory of relativity. EVERYTHING is relative. You are not good. You are not bad.The ecologist who doesn’t stop talking about how bad global warming is might seem the most boring person on Earth, but in fact some people would pay to listen to his passionate speeches. The person that you think has the most beautiful smile that ever existed might be found rather unattractive by your friends. So, you can’t really say how someone is, can you?
Every single day we go through so many experiences, we talk to different people and every lesson that we learn is shaping who we are. Try this: think of a word to describe what you are: the way you look, think or speak. It’s not very easy is it? So, just accept the idea that your neighbour is not just ‘annoying’ and that you are not fat, stupid or all-knowing.
Now remove the labels that you have in your head and just take life the way it is. Do you dream about taking art lessons but your parents wouldn’t take you seriously because they think that you will just get bored of it in the same way you got bored of gymnastics and piano classes? In the end, this will convince you that you get tired of new activities once you start them. You just need to trust yourself more than you trust others- be your supporter and you will end up being who you want to be.
Good luck! And next time when you’re talking about someone just remember that you might be very wrong and your opinion is very subjective anyway.
