Thought this would be a good introduction peice, "

"If your gender, race, s*xual preference, religious beliefs, profession, birthplace, material possessions, physical appearance, drugs or alcohol, hobbies or favorite sports, musical taste or lack there of, or any other insignificant label we place on ourselves or others define you as a person; then you have yet to define yourself."

I wrote this in light of recent life changing world events and personal life changing events, I didn't want to state everything in the world that people think define them, just to show that these "things" are seemingly meaningless and that if they show your true heart and they are "things" that people always associate with you that you don't know yourself nor do those around you. And that if you truly want to know someone take your time and dig deeper, not everyone is an open book.

In conclusion and to paraphrase myself:
"If the things that define you are just things you have yet to define yourself; things that define you should be timeless."
