Normalcy

My Mind

Normalcy: nor mal cy (noun) - the way things are under common circumstances.

I can`t imagine fumbling trough life striving to maintain normalcy; but you know as well as I that this is no plight for the imagination... It is, and has always been, the only reality we know.

This blog, serves to challenge the norm. Live as you are; embrace your differences, annoyances and mishaps. Learn from stupidity, anger, jealousy and regret. Get from it what no one dares to: truth. But don`t be fooled. I`m a simple girl with simple thoughts. Lower your expectations just a tad; give me what I strive to give you; a small piece of self/a mirror image of what the pursuit of normalcy has done to us, or at least to one woman`s outlook on the world and experiences gained from it.

Throughout the course of my life I`ve made certain that my happiness was buried, masked by pain, suffering, or some other self-hating descriptive. Would you believe that after almost three decades of bjte-noir, I`ve found a way to convert into something more heartening? I`ve come to appreciate all my abhorrence, suffering, fear wallowing, and disgust: chalking it up to the wonderful lessons of life prompted by misery. Don`t misunderstand my message. Misery does not have to be coupled with a negative. It is to me, a side note, reminding me that positive lessons are mostly taught by fear.

Enjoy my life.
