Who defines 'normal' anyway?
We are working very hard at being normal-ish since family is here to help with surgery stuff. HOWEVER, my parents are accustomed to spending time with various persons, so it works out ok. When I told them about DID, without skipping a beat my Mom said, "Well that explains a lot". Lol, so I guess normalcy hasn't ever really been my normal.
Today I'm overwhelmed with love and a feeling of wholeness just because of being with them. Physically in bad shape for a few more days, lots of scattered parts in our head but feeling whole. ..this is how normal should be. I'm sorry for those who don't have what I do and wish they could all experience this feeling, even if just for a moment.
I think this is what normal should be.
Are you normal? Do people feel strong and whole around you?
They don't around me, but I'm working on it.
I wanted to be normal and my sister found a quote that left me laughing:
ReplyDeleteNormal is a setting on the drier.
I am Ok with what I am.
I think self acceptance is a beautiful kind of normal.
