Dictionary life...

I stated today that I thought that " normal" should be outlawed...


I was trying to observe the differences between judging from the outside and saying that is normal ..and pushing the concept of someone elses normal upon others. Reading this, its as if its a mathematical formula for normal. If that is the case, how come I never got that in my classes, dictionary oh dictionary, how you ruin me.

Now read what balance means...there are plenty of meanings...

Everyone is telling me what to do, I cant find any balance, and I have no idea what is normal anymore. I used to think I knew, I had all sorts of lofty ideas for normal, I used my beloved family for that- and sometimes I was able to say -- well we werent always normal. Just when you think that, you are the ONLY one doing anything, and that you are special, its been done.
