Labels are what get us in trouble. lol If I had returned here, and kept my 'atheist' label by my religious views tagline by my avatar, and just didn't say a word...everyone wouldn't question me, and no one would be the wiser. It's when I changed my religious views 'tagline,' and shared that I returned to faith, that some people treated me differently. I'm still the same person, but that's the problem with labels. Human nature, I reckon.
Ironically enough, today I took a couple of self-adhesive labels and plastered them over my heels to prevent blisters.
Today, labels saved my life.
