Normal vs Different

I warn you for this post and it's structure, it's just my thoughs coming directly out of my mind.


Which of them do you think is best? I doubt there is an answer to that, but I'm curious to know what other people think.
I've been thinking about it a lot recently. Constantly you meet people who have this extreme need to stand out, and other's just want to be normal. First I thought the majority of them was those who wanted to be different, but now I sort of think it would be 50-50.
I think too much, perhaps... After all there are more opinions than stars in the sky.

Often when I hear someone I know well proclaim they are weird, I usually disagree. I tend to think "no you're not, but I guess it's pretty normal to think so about yourself." Is it just a need to stand out or low self-esteem? I don't necessarily think of it as a bad thing; we all have our personal worries after all...
And when the "I'm completely normal" speech comes from the others.... I tend to think "dude, you're fucked up". It doesn't have to be a bad thing to stand out either. Why is it such a big deal after all?

I guess it might just be what other people say about you... Their view on you.
It's probably not fun to be completely ordinary. Maybe a bit easier, but not fun....
But yet.... I think if you just try to be happy with who you are... It's not going to be such a burden. I got to admit that I'm starting to think trying too hard to be different is... Way too stereotypical. I see it all the time. And it's not going to chance. You'll always have that basic personality you can't really get rid off. But that's just my opinion. I know it's not well explained, but I'm just trying to say that it's completely ok to be normal. I believe you'll feel much better if you just accept who you are.

I don't really think it's going to change if you try to be someone else. No matter which path you choose, you're always going to have personal difficulties.

I mean what about those who are different? That is not fun either, if you keep noticing how people will always point fingers at you.

Wow, this is pure crap, I'll edit it later.
