When people say the just want to be normal or they just want a normal family it makes me laugh. What is normal? My idea of normal and your idea of normal are not the same, very rarely will you find more than a few people with the same idea of what normal is.
Maybe we should call normal whatever the majority of Americas do or have? For example a little over half of marriages end in divorce so to be normal you need to be divorced at some point. The average income per household (not per person) is around 50k that's includes people who are 45 and those 18, so making 50k at 18 sounds great but how many people when they are 45 still what to be making 50k? I couldn't find any numbers on Cancer but I wonder what percentage of families are affected by Cancer, still want to be normal?
I know we often look at certain person as a ideal “normal” person or ideal family in our head who is the perfect example of what we think of when we say normal. However, there is no one on earth who does not have a problem, weather it be physical, mental, emotional, personal, addiction, relationship, etc., everybody has something they would like to change or not have to deal with.
So do we really want to be normal, or do we want to be abnormal? The key to the person you think is normal is not that they don't have anything wrong in there life it's that they have learned how to deal with the challenges that they have been presented with. Life is 10% of what happens, to you and 90% of how you deal with it. Besides who wants to be the same as they were as a kid, isn't life about growing and becoming a better person everyday of your life?

Its Friday
Why do we feel so much better on Fridays?
Are they really that much better than the four days that come before it? Is work really that bad are Saturdays really that amazing.
I have asked a few people already today how they are doing and I get the same response “great, its Friday”.
So I am trying to figure out are Fridays that great or are we just brain washed by society into thinking Fridays are so great?
