What it means to be normal

[no1hasthissn]

Today I came up with my own personal revelation and that is, when you think of normal, you're really thinking of perfect. When you ask "why can't my parents be normal?" you're really wishing that they were perfect. When you ask "why can't my bf/gf be normal?" you're asking, "why can't he/she be perfect?" I'm not sure why the word normal was ever

I don't really know if that's the case, at least for me. I don't think I've ever wondered why someone wasn't normal. It seems like a weird thing to ask. I don't think I've ever wondered why people weren't perfect either. I like people because they already are. Perfectly themselves. It just gets weirder when people try to be something that they're not. But then, my perfect is different from your perfect.

Actually, this made me think of a quote from a movie...

"But for now, let me say - Without hope or agenda - Just because it's Christmas - And at Christmas you tell the truth - To me, you are perfect - And my wasted heart will love you - Until you look like this: x_x "

Cookie if anyone can name the movie. 3 cookies if you're a guy and you can admit it because it's definitely not a guy movie.
