N IS FOR NORMAL
Normal is subjective. Normal is relative. Normal is something I hope I'll NEVER be. Normal is one of the worst names you can call me. To me, normal is boring, conformist, and un-original. It's everything I AM NOT.
Some people spend thousands of dollars and countless hours of their time trying to be normal. They want to feel normal and look normal. They want to be a carbon copy, cookie cutter image of everyone else.
WHY?
There is beauty in being unique-in being YOU. Why strive to be something you're not? Why do so many people want to be an artificial dress up doll in a society of cutouts?
There is truth in honoring how you feel and what you believe in. There is freedom and joy in following your own path. I refuse to get in that line of sheeple, those "yes men" and head-nodders. I will not wear what mass media spews over the airwaves. I will not agree with the masses and hold my tongue when everything in my soul screams, "NO, that's a LIE!"
These are excerpts from something I recently wrote:
"I'm not your pearl clutcher,
not your Stepford Wife...
I don't want no part of
your cookie-cutter life..
No grey sedans
No minivans...
Gonna shave my head
Dye it Cherry Red..."
Oh, and YES I DID!

Happy A to Z-ing! from Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines
Well said! Normal is a word that shouldn't exist anyways. With so many people in the world, all of them being so different, how can we even define a normal?
Just stopping by from a-z. :)

Fantastic blog you have here but I was curious about if you knew of any
user discussion forums that cover the same topics talked about in this article?
I'd really like to be a part of group where I can get responses from other experienced people that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thank you!
