About: Definition of “normal”:
being approximately average or within certain limits in e.g. intelligence and development; "a perfectly normal child"; "of normal intelligence"; "the most normal person I've ever met"

I find that most people strive for perfection every day. They seek to live “the perfect life”, without really knowing what that is. They do have some idea, that it includes being better than the neighbour, mostly focussing on money and wealth. But on a subconscious level, all they’re really trying to do is to fit into that little box named Normal. They don’t want to “stand out”. In reality they’re just trying to “do what everyone else is doing”. It matters a great deal to them, what other people think of them. And they consider everyone who’s not following the crowd to be abnormal.

I chat with a few people on a daily basis. Some of these people would hardly fit into that box named Normal, and that’s probably why I find them so interesting. They are not afraid to share their own thoughts and ideas, even though it has given them disappointments and pain many times in the past doing so. They are polite and friendly, despite of the often opposite behaviour they receive in return. You will find no aggressive counter-attitude with these people.
I’m tempted to say that they dare to be different, but the truth is that it’s not really a decision anyone can make about themselves. Various circumstances through up life cause you to become who you are. However these circumstances have been doesn’t really matter. What’s important is who you are today.
Because these people aren’t afraid to go their own way, nothing prohibits them from living life without self-made borders. They ask questions where others remain silent, and they express themselves where others remain inactive. They do not try to hide their dark sides or their flaws. Of course they get hurt, like everyone else, when someone shows up with unpleasant remarks, but they do not change themselves on that ground. They do not choose silence or inactivity, despite constant corrections and “guidelines” thrown in their face by the crowd, and that my friend, is perfection to me. That is how I believe God intended for us to live our lives.

This one is a tribute to my special friends out there, hanging tough in this weird stressed out world with confused people in panic and anxiety, constantly trying to convince themselves that they’re on the right track. This is me claiming that; being considered to be abnormal by the crowd is a very good thing. Perfection is when nothing can influence your life to go in any other direction than your own.

As usual I offer some help in how you could interpret the track. This is just one way of listening. Make up your own if you feel like it. :-)
