i like to say "undefine your boundaries". isn't labeling/dividing the very thing that's causing devision and strife in our world? anyone, i'm done; many happy dives to ya.
good question. i label myself cause like you said, i am compelled to. i am many many many more things than 'freegan'. being 'freegan' is just a summation of a lifestyle choice and behavior. like being a jehova's witness. and also because otherwise i'd be called a bum.
