Is this normal?

All humans adapt to their environment.

It is both a blessing and a curse.

"Normal" is a very powerful concept.

To me,

It's normal to be big, strong, rich, well-spoken, famous.

It's my normal.

To be anything less or more, would feel out of place.

When I was in jail,

I made a very conscious decision not to allow it to become "normal"

I fought the natural human instinct,

Because I know just how crippling it can be.

Normal leads to acceptance,

Acceptance leads to inaction.

And inaction keeps you there.

Look around yourself,

What is your normal

Is it normal for you to be poor? Weak? Alone? Stupid

Is this your normal

Is this what you've allowed your body and mind to be accustomed to

You need to be very aware of what you consider normal.

Normal is where you will naturally end up.
