You are important! You matter! (Regardless of titles)
Have you ever noticed that many people introduce themselves like this?
"Hi! My name is John Doe and I am a Registered nurse with 4 degrees, I'm an introvert, a Democrat, an atheist and a vegan. Nice to meet you!"
Well, maybe not exactly like this 😂 but my point is, people are obsessed with titles! We want to feel like we are apart of something. We want to "belong". Our egos have a desperate need to attach itself to labels. These labels give us a sense of power and importance.
Labels and titles can be harmless, but when we identify with them, that's where the trouble begins. We measure our value through the names people call us and the names we call ourselves. We even compare ourselves to others through titles.
Someone with little money may identify as "broke". Because there is a negative meaning behind the term "broke", this person may feel negatively about their self. Another example, someone with a PhD might begin to feel or be viewed as superior to others. Most people find this title honorable.
No human is greater or lesser than the next human. We are all light beings. We all come from source energy (God, higher power, etc). When we get caught up in our tricky little egos, we forget that we are all equal. No matter what your educational level is, your job position, or your diet choice, we are all important and we all deserve to be happy. 😊 You have to love and appreciate yourself just because you are you. You don't need a fancy title to validate yourself.
We have to train ourselves to let go of the unnecessary need to label ourselves. We must learn how to just simply be.
