Labels


So today on the radio, the dj on Air1 was talking about the labels we put on people and how putting labels will actually change how we perceive people/things.  Wow, what a timely discussion.  Today at the gym, a small group of individuals were there as guests of a staff member.  I immediately labeled them (negatively) and began complaining (to myself) about how "this group" had taken over a portion of the gym.  I was definitely guilty of categorizing, labeling and relegating to "the bucket" several people I had never met or interacted with.

Until this morning, I would have sworn that I don't do this - that I am fair, imparital and unbiased.  God showed me quite clearly that isn't the case.

blessings on your day
