Define “normal”. Not many people can truly define what normal is. This is because normal is defined by one’s limited perception of life experiences depending on their capacity to understand the process patterns of what they can consider acceptable to them, or not according to their level of growth. Normal is very different for everyone according to their upbringing, culture, ethnic background, life experiences, or what not.

“Being just normal is more like saying, you don’t trust yourself enough about how amazing you can become! Have more faith in you!” – Eleanora Grace Heart

Why would you even want to be normal? What does that even mean to you at this season in your life?

What does normal look or feel like in life? Is it mundane? Or what has been done before will always be the only truth? Or are we limiting ourselves to what if we were meant for greatness as an ordinary person who has the potential to do extraordinary things?

How do we challenge ourselves for evolvement in our self-accountability?

How do we master our self-evolvement?

I have written my personal article about my own life’s evolution and click here to read or watch the video: How to master your own evolution?

After all, I love what Maya Angelou says that made a mark in my heart a long time ago and led me to know and embody my own amazingness when I unleashed it from deep within me, even though I looked like another “normal” human being.

“If you’re always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.” – Maya Angelou

You see, we are all human beings but deep inside we all have a potential for greatness if we are willing to tap into our own unique giftings through our strengths, values, and purpose. The truth of our own amazing greatness can only be found from deep within us. It is not magic. It is just part of our lives purpose if we truly want to get to know ourselves deeply. You will be amazed at how amazing you can be, just like what Maya Angelou says. To me that rings true because I made a priority in my life to get to know and master my evolution. Also, I felt I was meant for more than just living under the influence of mundane after mundane without the awareness that we have a choice. And that choice is learning to navigate our own choices of reality. With that reality of choice comes responsibility. With that responsibility comes commitment. With that commitment comes learning new healthy habits. It is in our daily healthy choice of habit we find how amazing we can become in a tough situation. 

I have spent several years feeling “normal’ according to what society pictures us to be, do, or have in life. But deep within me, I always felt I was meant for more. So, I worked on myself in silence like how the seed is planted in the deep ground. As this seed grows in me in silence, in the dark of challenges thinking that I will never see a ray of sunshine into my life. Little did I know, the seeds that were planted in me when my soul contract signed up what and who I am meant to become in these thousands trust of journey on earth, I started seeing my seeds grow and grow until new shoots sprouted from the ground and feeling the sunrays on my skin. It felt like hope and empowerment in life. As I grew and grew through my life's true experiences of challenges, it shaped me into who I am today. I didn’t know my own power or how amazing I could have become. If I hadn’t taken a leap of quantum faith and learned to trust myself and the Divine Source's guidance, I would not be here writing this article contributing to our world that needs peace, love, truth, and harmony. Because sometimes this world can be cruel that we need to remind ourselves to be more kind and not look at the other as an enemy.

So, to go back to what is normal anyway? Go ahead and ask different people and see what they can come up with. You will notice, that it depends on someone’s life experiences of what normal of truth life experiences they have gathered within the span of their life. 

But the good news is, you get to choose to co-create the kind of normal you want to be. I am an ordinary person but I chose to do extraordinary things in my own life as a co-creator and contributor in our world. I wanted to find out and experience how amazing I could become while I still have this vessel of life as an opportunity to experience the essence of life through discovering my inner strengths, values, and purpose. And so can you too, but do it in your own unique way that it becomes more personal to you and real. That way it makes a mark in your heart the gifts of life through life experiences. 

So, what kind of normal you will turn things around to greatness in you? 

Will you learn to turn loss into love?

Will you learn to turn grief into grace?

Will you learn to turn hurt into healing?

Will you learn to turn wounds into evolving wisdom?

Will you learn to turn a mess into a powerful magnificent message?

Will you learn to turn your normal into abnormally amazing beautiful contributions to this world?

Ready or not, just trust and take a leap of faith with one foot in front of the other. Baby steps are all you need. Trust is the big thing. 

So, being just normal is more like saying, you don’t trust yourself enough how amazing you can become! Have more faith in you!
