How many times have you been told to “act normal?”

I don’t know who the Great Judgmental Eye in the Sky is who decides what is normal and what is not. And I don’t care.

Normal is overrated.

Every culture has their own version of what’s normal. So, what is normal in one culture is different from what is normal in another culture.

Every family is different; so what is normal in one family is different from what is normal in another family. So, who gets to decide what is normal? Why do they get to set the rules?

Frankly, I believe being normal is boring.

It’s much more fun to follow our own drummer and be ourselves.

Wear a funny hat. Wear something that is not “in fashion” and make it your fashion.

Wear your glasses proudly even if they are ugly because they are yours and no one else has the right to judge them. Wearing glasses is just as normal as having 20/20 vision.

Other people should not get to decide what is normal for you.
