Figurative box

Collect all the opinions, beliefs, fears, or cravings (lets call em beans) you hold,
In a figurative box,
Number the beans or name them, or colour them, to tell them apart, like you would on a door,
Empty the box, 
Spill them on a figurative floor,
Fasten your socks,
Its time to put them like they were before,
But as you pick each one up,
Inspect them closely,
Does that bean really fit in?,
Were you the one who put them
Inside,
Or were they always there,
Are there facts to back it up,
Is it a proven stereotype that you should bear,
Or is it one of those countless prejudices that lingers everywhere,
Would you believe it if your weren't born in to it?,
Is this dream really your own?,
Or by everyone else sown,
Is your fear really justified,
Are your cravings only to boast,
This way,
Many a bean shall be nullified,
Now your box will be lighter, it will float.
