"Normal"(what is it??)

article image placeholderUploaded by @jkfhjkjg
You. Hey, what's up? Swell. I know it's been a while since I recorded anything, but I just wanted to get on here and, you know, jump on here and record something that was on my brain recently. And the main topic will be, you know, what? What is normal? What is what's being normal? So the first topic, the first point I wanted to ask talk about is what is normal? Some say it's a societal construct

Or there's this I guess there's something called a tall Poppy syndrome. And so anybody who's getting out of the average, let's say, bell curve or what have you, attempting to be authentically themselves or an outlier or whatever wording you want to use, it makes people angry. Once you're past the breaking the ceiling, so to speak, then it's like you can be celebrated like some great person or held aloft somehow

Ah, thanks for responding to my question. And yes, I completely agree with you 100%. 100%. Because most of my life, or most of the younger years growing up, I would hear other people saying, well, why can't you just act like a normal human being? And it's just like, what is a normal human being? Everyone has their own quirks and flaws and whatever you want to call it

Because just to go with what everyone says is normal and hide who you truly are is to hide from the world something that might be the leader of change. So keep being
