Normal or natural?
When I was young I didn't want to be normal. I defined my worth by my gifts, which made me different, unique, and special.
I hear people speak of wanting to feel, act, or experience normal. Maybe they mean natural?
Normal is mathematically and socially standard. Fitting in. Part of the crowd.
Natural is how you were made. Your essence. The truth that starts inside you and can't be changed.
The irony for me is that being natural helps me see how normal I am.
Would you rather be normal or natural?
