What is Normal anyway?
Definition of Normal

Well if that is the society's definition of Normal I certainly AM NOT NORMAL in most sense of the word.

Well I am not any of the above. So with that said what exactly am I.
Maybe I am just my own kind of Normal.
Will not hesitate to help a stranger that needs help. I would never be one of thoe people video taping I would be the one calling 911 or aiding the person in anyway possible. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”
Intellectual curiosity. Like to feed my mind with knowledge and information. Every since I was a kid I asked a lot of questions. Information is power. Can be a bit of a pest as very persistent and lots of questions about everything that I don't understand
Communicate directly rather then phone or text if possible
Not a follower nor a leader beat to my own drum. I am a definite outside the box thinker and like to try innovative ideas or concepts. In the late 1960's I use to dunk my potato chips in malt vinegar my Mum use to get so angry and say “Who does that” I did that because it tasted wonderful.
Love myself and very confident so figure if I think up an idea it is worth giving it a true. I can only fail then it is simply a learning experience.
Risk taker as always do research before taking action...would rather try then not know it just isn't possible
Innovative, creative off the wall thinker. When I was in high school and bell bottoms where in style I would go to the second hand store and get boys PJ's and get my straight legged jeans and insert a large triangle shape from the PJ's down the side of each leg to cause the jeans to flair out. I could have been the laughing stock but I thought it was brilliant so off I went and everyone loved it and started doing it to their jeans.
Stand up for my rights, rebellious. If I am passionate about a principal I will stand my ground
Peter Pan syndrome. Always been young at heart, very playful and just love to laugh. I got kicked out of a Casino for being drunk and haven't had one drink but was laughing so hard with my friends the Security Guard said I was drunk because of all my shadanagins. I told him I am naturally high on life. They still kicked me out
Love energy healing, visualization meditation, fantasy, daydreaming important part of who I am brings out my creativity
Very curious about many things, there is nothing I am closed minded about.
Love problem solving and coming with unique solutions like the challenge as I like the feeling of accomplishment
Heightened sensitivity to natures beauty. Want to stop and smell the roses to take the time to view everything as a life lesson to improve my life each and everyday. Cancer survivor and cancer does that to you it makes you not sweat the small stuff and appreciate everything
Often concerned with improving the conceptual frameworks of institutions, objects, and systems. I live in a condo and we had a real bad landscaper and I spoke with Management and they where not willing to do anything. I went to the Board and asked if I could form a sub committee and form a Landscaping Committe. So me and 3 others formed a Landscaping Committe and since then there has been numerous positive results. The first thing we did was fire the old Landscaper and put out a tender for a new Landscaping Company. We can't wait till spring to beautify our community.
When you build the vision others will follow.
Don't like habits or routine find it mondain and boring like to shake things up
If told I can't it does not beat me down it inspires me to prove that I will do everything possible to prove I can
If it matches don't wear it not keen on sameness. Like to be a pioneer
Tend to gravitate the under dog...when I was a teen everyone like Paul McCarthy in the Beatles but hardly anyone liked Ringo so I really liked Ringo. Seems like I have done that in most of my life like people, place and things that are off the beaten track.
I believe in the God of my own understanding and this is my core
Family is my precious gift and I am over the moon grateful for each and everyone of them. Below is a picture of me and my two daughters and two granddaughers. The only one missing was my sweet son.
Some people might think of me as Abnormal. I regard myself as a unique, interesting NORMAL ME. I'm like a snowflake only one like me and that is a good thing. Be your own Normal.
