Changing Normal

Normal. The dictionary defines normal as conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected. To me that sounds boring. To me, normal is trying to fit in because you're worried if you're not normal you won’t have any friends. Well I don’t know about you but all of the friends that I have met like me because I’m Not Normal. Actually No one is really normal. It's impossible to be normal. Everyone has different expectations of what normal is and you can’t live up to all of them. So stop trying to be normal because it's never going to get you anywhere and if you're trying to be normal all the time you’ll never have time to be yourself and you’ll never have time to discover what you like so you’ll probably end up getting a job you don’t like.

I know this is spiraling but too many waste their time and energy on trying to be normal. Too many people feel insecure about themselves because they aren’t normal. We can change that. Stop comparing people to expectations in your head. Let them show you who they are instead of you deciding for them. And stop judging people because they don’t live up to your expectations. It's impossible for them to know what your expectations are and they just want you to know them. Not some picture in your head that you think is them. The new normal is not being normal. So dress how you want. If other people judge you it's because they wish they had the courage to express themselves like you do. Act however you want. You don’t have to fit stereotypes of how you think you're supposed to act. Explore Your Interests not just the ones your friends like. Don’t be normal. Be extraordinary.
