While labels have both good and bad effects, it is important to understand that you are more than the words that describe you. As author Collin Wright wrote in his book Act Accordingly: “Labels help define you, but they are not you.”
You are more than just a religion, a race, a gender, or a medical diagnosis. You are a person with a collection of many unique and amazing characteristics and qualities!
