We label each person with different names and categories. For example, when we’re born we are a child, when we reach puberty, we are called teenagers. When we achieve maturity, we are known as adults and when we grow old, we die (just kidding, actually we go to an alternate world called heaven and are born again).

Labels give people a sense of order, and a way of distinguishing things. Yet, people aren't things; they are human beings first and foremost. Using labels to describe people ignores deeper reflections of their personhood. A person's race, sexuality, socioeconomic status or geographic origins does not define all that he or she is or will be.
