To Be Depressed

Normal's Like Yourself

Sorry this is short, it's just a quick chapter I've got down :)

*** *** *** ***

I read a comment on a story on here, it's the quote at the end of the chapter and the inspiration for it.

The comment was about being "normal" and was provoked because in the chapter of the story, the author states that they want to be normal.

I have a question for you; what is your definition of normal?

I'm asking you think because everyone's views are different.

And if everyone's views are different, how can we be "normal".

Well that's just it, isn't it? We can't!

But you know what we can be?

We can be the only thing we can ever really and wholly be, ourselves.

That's a lot easier said than done. Once you've lost yourself, it's much harder to be yourself again. It's easy to forget who you really are...

But just because it takes time, doesn't mean it's not worth it in the end.

In the end you'll be normal.

You're own exciting, sparkling, new, unique normal. Something nobody's ever seen in quite the same way before!

Most importantly, you'll be you.

Hopefully, you'll be happy.

I know for a fact, you'll be beautiful however you turn out.

I think if we all stopped trying to be someone we would all feel a lot better and we would have a new "society" who's not so harsh.

This is because we would all be more comfortable in our own skin.

I know when you strip back everything, what I personally really want is to feel completely comfortable in my own skin.

I'm sure that's all you really want too, when you think about it.

So stop trying to be "normal" or "perfect" or anything that isn't you.
