I avoid people who try to put me in their category ~~ when I know in my heart who and what I am.

I am lucky; no one cares to categorize me - to my face!

Well, be thankful. It's a good thing. And, perhaps, it is because you are in a category all by yourself. You ARE the category, Caren.

Good advice Milton, never follow the crowd, always be your own man. Tom

Absolutely. To follow the crowd is generally to go some place you don't really want to go.
