Normalcy: What's it to you

What is normalcy 
But a relative term
What's normal to me
May not be normal to you
Something someone else decided

In its true sense
Normalcy is being who you are
The way you were meant to be
Comfortable in your own skin
Your own shape and colour
Not letting the words of others
Bring you down
And not bringing others down
With your words

Living the life you choose
The way you were meant to live 
With whom you choose to live with
Living it the way you want
Loving whomever you love 
Letting not your preferences 
Determine the others view of you
Letting not the gender or the race
Or words determine
Whether your love is normal or not 

Who are we to say
What's normal or not
Who is normal or not
If we were to live up to the standards
What others set
Life will never be normal
In fact life is never normal

Normal is being you are
With all your abilities and disabilities
With your impediments 
Your shortcomings
Your preferences
Your choices
It's that what makes you normal

You are normal 
In every sense of the world
Take pride in it
And let no one bring you down
