Everyone craves to be normal because they think that it is a good thing. Personally, I believe being ‘normal’ is bad and shouldn’t be a something to desire. ‘Normal’ means being like everyone else. Who wants to be basic and just like everyone around you? Nobody should. Everyone is different in their own unique ways and you should express that in any way you can. Unfortunately, since people think everyone should be normal as in wearing and acting like everyone else, it makes it hard for people to come out of their shells and do what they really want to do and not what they are pressured into because it is the ‘normal’ thing to do. Being ‘normal’ can resist people from their real selves and prevent people from growing and finding themselves. Use your inner weirdness to your advantage. It will be more fun and make life more valuable and memorable. Your society may guide an individual to act a certain way due to different social norms and perspectives.
Social norms can impact peoples personality and force them to act in the same way everyone else is which can lead to someone loosing their sense of self. Being ‘normal’ could make you lose your identity and if continue the trend of being normal it might be hard to find who you are again or even at all. It is better to let out your real personality and find than friends who fit in with you, not you trying to fit in with others when that is not your true self. Trying to fit in to be ‘normal’ could end up going against your own beliefs and principles. It could lead to unhappiness or completely change who you are in which could end in a negative way. In fact, being normal is just an opinion but people don't realize that.
People look past the fact that it is an opinion because they are too busy thinking that normal is something they should be and think they will be judged if they be their true self. Being normal is average, you should want to be above average. Above average is intriguing and different. If we were all normal, everyone would be the same, and we would have nothing to talk about because we would have everything in common. Spread your wings and fly. Fly far away from being normal and set your goals to be above average and different. As Marilyn Monroe said, "Being normal is boring", be weird and be your true self, life will be more fun that way.
