You ever watch the show, Schitt’s Creek?
It’s brilliant. Like Seinfeld brilliant. It’s a little zany, but it’s so good. Here’s one of my favorite quotes from Dan Levy’s character David Rose. He was explaining his sexual preferences to Stevie in season one.
“I do drink red wine. But I also drink white wine. And I’ve been known to sample the occasional rosé. And a couple summers back I tried a merlot, that used to be a chardonnay. I like the wine, and not the label.”
I legit LOL’d!
When I watched the documentary after the final season of Schitt’s Creek I learned that simple exchange did tremendous things for the LGBTQ community.
Alexander Peartree from https://www.winemag.com said it best:
“As a gay man, I find it can be draining to constantly see myself reflected on screen in characters who are struggling as a result of their own sexuality… It was so simple and nuanced, yet profound, uplifting and incredibly refreshing. The fact they did all with a wine-focused metaphor only broadens the scope to a wider audience.”
I think there’s a lot you can take from David’s wine analogy with your personal development. Some people don’t get the info they need because they’re hung up on labels.
“That’s too spiritual”.
“He’s too religious”.
“I don’t like books, I only like video…”
Get the info that can propel you forward, and don’t worry about the label.
