Do YOU want to be 'NORMAL'?

WHY??

THINK of someone you ADMIRE  -  SOMEONE you would LIKE to BE like.

WHO are you THINKING OF??

Are you THINKING of a famous ACTOR or SINGER?? How about an ATHLETE or someone who INVENTED something?? Perhaps you admire a religious person or a politician. [it could happen!! lol] It really doesn't matter WHO you are thinking of - to be honest. Anyone from Mozart to TONY HAWKE [to pro-skateboarder] is perfectly FINE. It's up to YOU who YOU admire.

WHOEVER IT IS YOU ARE THINKING OF....

THAT

PERSON

IS

A

FREAK

But I promise you something.....

Let me tell you something about 'being normal'.

A 'normal' person has NEVER done ANYTHING of ANY significance. It's the 'FREAKS' of the world that have made life worth living. A 'normal' person NEVER composed [wrote] music. A 'normal' person NEVER tugged on our hearts while portraying a charactor in a movie. A 'normal' person NEVER wrote a poem or painted a picture or slid across a parking lot curb while on a skateboard. A 'normal'person never INVENTED anything - either.

EVERYTHING that we enjoy TODAY was invented          or created or thought of by a 'FREAK'.

so.....

STOP TRYING TO BE 'NORMAL'

The LAST 'thing' our world NEEDS is yet       another so-called 'normal' person.

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF

	How important is 'being normal' to  YOU?? Very important Somewhat important Not TOO important NOT important - AT ALL

	Are you willing to become a 'freak'?? YES - from now on I'm going to honour MYSELF by BEING MYSELF. [even IF that makes SOME so-called 'normal people' feel uncomfortable] I wish I could say, 'Yes - I AM willing', but what other people THINK of ME matters MORE than what I think of myself I have NO interest in being a 'freak'. All I want is to be 'normal'. [and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that OTHER people THINK I'm 'normal'] I'm already a 'freak' and will continue to be 'one' until the day I die. I'm not sure WHAT I'm willing to do. [if anything]

What do I mean by the word 'FREAK'??

I use the word 'FREAK' [on this page] to make a point. A 'freak' is someone [or some 'thing'] that is NOT usual or 'normal'. Tony Hawke - for example - is NOT 'normal'  OR 'usual' - therefore - HE is a 'FREAK'. What HE can do with a  skateboard - most people CAN'T do. Anyone who is unique either in ability and/or charactor - is a 'FREAK'. A 'freak' is NOT someone who is cruel and/or selfish - however. A 'freak' has no interest in making OTHER people feel bad about themselves. In FACT - a genuine 'freak' [as far as I'm concerned] would SUPPORT and ENCOURAGE others to BE themselves.

Society has become its' own worst enemy. The pressure on people to conform to some silly idea of what's 'NORMAL' [and to become - what I call - 'good little soldiers'] has all but destroyed the human spirit. WE [as a society] have cheated ourselves [and continue to cheat ourselves] out of some truly gifted and unique people. 'We' are incapable [for the most part] of embracing those who do NOT 'follow the crowd'. If Mozart were alive today - he would PROBABLY be bullied and picked on so severely that his 'gift' [what made HIM a 'freak'] would be buried and lost forever. Instead of spending his time composing some of the world's most beautiful music - Mozart would be trying to figure out how to survive yet another day while being 'picked on' by one or more emotionally immature 'bullies'. How very tragic. One can only wonder how many 'Mozarts' have NEVER been able to share their 'gift' with the world because of society's inability and unwillingness to embrace and - indeed - encourage those who ARE unique.

Let me know what YOU think. Feel free to post a message on ANY [or ALL] of my many message boards.
