Do you label yourself? Or others?

Question

Like in a class. Or a status?
I'm kinda of making a philosophy.
If you don't label yourself, why must you label your feelings? Have you ever had that feeling that you don't know what to call it? You try to acknowledge it but don't know what it is?

Answer 1

This is a world of labels. Everything has a label on it.

Answer 2

I think that what you have is good. but it is a hard question to answer and I guess that is why it is good.. I can say that I have had feelings that aren't really easy to describe or label and I think its just easy to think of them as "that" feeling... I think that when we experience the feeling we are acknowledging it ,but we just don't truly understand it ourselves... it just doesn't fit into any label though and because of this it seems unintelligible in a way, but at the same time it is something real ...
and yes I label people but most of the time I just use their name to describe them with (in my mind). In my view it just helps me attribute what i observe as being a part of them, (labels) but also leaves alot of room for things I just don't know to be acknowledged by myself .. like for example their potential ...... so it is just another way to label I guess...

Answer 3

I label myself as a strange, halve hearted, semi skilled, outgoing, twizted, weird little child with out any sense at all and barley any feelings, and I label almost everyone else as hypocrites, almost everyone else.

Answer 4

labeling is human nature.. without labeling and categorizing we don't process or understand things.. the trick is to make sure our labels don't rule our thoughts or how we interact.

Answer 5

I learned the "Fart" philosophy in kindergarder which is "He who smelt it, dealt it." Meaning that what ever we lable on anyone else is what we hold in our own personal joy's and fears.

Or, we can use the other kindergardner cliche, "What you you say bounces off me and stick to you like glue."

Both of these are sooo true in politics, relationships, and general socializing. Simplicity is key.

Answer 6

I attempt to not label myself or all of us else; we are actually not cans of vegetables. yet heavily, i'm unique, cute, gorgeous, pudgy, insecure, sceptical, overly careful, dedicated to my family members, cuddly, and hectic.
