Day 12: Abnormality

ab·nor·mal·i·ty ˌabnôrˈmalədē/
noun
an abnormal feature, characteristic, or occurrence, typically in a medical context.

the quality or state of being abnormal.

It's sort of interesting, how this thing called "life" works. We work hard on living for our passions, in order to live a life of happiness and completeness. Though this may be true, the line between doing what we love, and conforming to others in society, is very fine. This is the absolute truth, and runs deep enough for people to be looked at as if they have an abnormality because they do not desire to conform. I keep getting stuck on the fact that there are people out there that live their lives so loosely, that they sacrifice any base that they have already built. Mainly in relationships, people get engulfed in whatever the subject matter they are involved in, only to eventually grow bored of the state of the involvement that they have. In other words, people are far more open to open relationships. It is very sad, and seems to be some form of a cry for help. While I shouldn't ever let it get to me, I have the responsibility of taking care of you and our relationship, along with taking care of myself. The abnormality that a large section of society has deemed normal, is a grand concern. I don't ever want you to have to be in a position of compromise. I trust you, but it is never an easy feeling to be bombarded with outside "static". And truthfully, maybe this normalcy that has been created is to their own demise. In today's society, that would be received with a scoffing tone, and a confirmation of the abnormality.
