Normal, Normal, Normal

What is normal these days anyways.
I've honestly lost track.

After High School some of my friends went to college, some didn't.
In college some of my friends had boyfriends, some did not.
After college some of my friends stayed in the area, some did not.

Who is one to say what normal is.
I feel like we should really be doing things that feel natural.
When I say natural, I am absolutely not sayin' don't challenge yourself.
Because you should always be setting and working towards goals.
Testing personal limits to achieve them, etc.

But that should feel natural.
But natural as in, what feels right for you.
What feels like it fits.

But back to NORMAL:
I often find myself thinking about things like.
Do I have a normal job??
Do other people my age do these things?
Do I make a normal amount of money?
Do other people do this??

But at the end of the day WHY does ANY of this matter?
Well ladies. 
It doesn't.

And that's what I have to keep in mind. Always.
I doesn't matter what other people are doing.
It only matters that you are happy with what you are doing.

So what I have come to learn is that normal is a whole spectrum of things.
Normal is doing what you need, want, and feel natural doing.

Rhetorical, probably.
But it doesn't hurt to have a healthy dose of reminding ourselves that what we're doing is totally fine.


And, I know what you are thinking.
Zoey is abnormally cute.
You're right. 
She is.

Thursday all day.
Enjoy it.
