something I realized well on a walk during a fog.
“normalcy is for those who are to weak, to afraid to admit what they are, not normal”. No one is I mean think of what is considered normal who fits that, who even really wants to be like that. Do you want to be happy all the time, every second. People see normal and think well yeah I could deal with that; a nice house, nice wife, not a social problem in the world. Well normal is settling for the second best, the equivalent of saying well maybe if I tried harder, but at least I got what I got (the sports equivalent is being told you have heart). Yep you do but, what do you have the house is not going to get bigger it will get older, it will break trust me. Plus poster boy of normal will be to afraid to try anything. Think about the normal man wares pretty nice clothes and won't do much to dirty them. Meaning you would not try new things your wife would get bored hearing the same story for the fifteenth time and the marriage might not break but, it will lose it's fire, the spark, the passion gone (and berry white will only fix that for so long “if you know what I'm talkin' about”).

Most people think of normalcy and believe that the person is ambitious. Nope not in the slightest. This is close to what the “normal” person would say “I love to draw but, I don't have any good pencils”. That is not ambition, that is condescending contradictory. I hear that so, many times, to sum it up very quickly I want to but, it's hard or I lack some skill related to it so, i am not going to try. Well guess what I love to write but, I can't spell at all, to prove this I have used spell check about fifty times so, far. Is that stopping me nope, still writing.

Above all no one can be that kind of normal it is not even imposable to be that normal, to be that conforming, were talking stereotypical 50's kind of happy here it's not human to be that happy go watch any “family show” from the time you'll see what I mean. ( I asked a lot people what they thought normal was I got close to the stereotype form the fifties eight times out of ten). So be abnormal, odd, wired. Try new things, your going to fall on your ass a lot , It'll hurt trust me though it's well worth it . You'll get to experience things others would never even consider trying. And more than anything you are you not what others say or want you to be and if you have a problem with yourself than work to fix it. This I can prove my teachers in around the sixth grade believed that I was so, bad with writing that I would not know the difference between an “a” and a”q” and well the first one is clearly Q ( no not really I know the alphabet, just thought I'd end this with a bit of a joke). So ask your self before you want to be normal ask yourself what is normal you really want that.
