You are not the labels that are put on you. You are not the roles you play.
You cannot be defined by your political preference, class, profession, marital status, sexuality, citizenship, favorite football team, diet, hobbies or the amount of money on your bank account.
Although you are a part of all that is conscious, a spark of the universe, you are also just you, the unique you entity.
It is actually possible to escape most of those labels and roles, if you want to. You are freer than you are conditioned to believe.
Nobody but you has any right to tell you what path to choose in life. Unsolicited advice has nothing to do with you. They are just projections.
