It is so hard for us to individualize a person. From the first instance, when our eyes gave upon each other, we start to classify one another. I would be lying if I said the first characteristic I associate with someone is not their race, and with that, we start to set expectations, with every word docking or adding to my perception of them. In my silence, I observe people, and people set their expectations based on that. Because I am often not one to talk so often, a judgment of me as a person tends to be vague and one-sided as people believe they can judge a quiet person. Though when I share a thought or two, my beliefs may differ so much as someone would go as far as saying I have turned a new leaf. Ultimately, someone could be doing the same if they are talking too much as well. When so many words come out of your mouth that nothing you say seems to hold substance. One sensible thing from their mouth may result in a complete change in character. 

All we want to do is classify, we would like to decline each other, limit each other, and judge each other. Though we should stand to not take things face value. We should stand to think, maybe the name “the quiet kid” might not be a full stop to his character. We should stand for each other’s strengths and realize, though he may like to play videogames, that is not to say he doesn’t put any effort into being active. We should all stand for our diversity, for we all can’t be declined in one category.
