Shortcut to Normal

I laugh everytime I see that desktop icon.  As if there is a shortcut.  Most of us spend our lives just trying to be "normal"--to just fit in.

But what is normal?  We know those who are not normal--the people we label weird for not blending.  We know those who have surpassed normalcy and have been given permission to no longer maintain the status quo.  But what about the rest of us--those of us who are just, well, normal?

Maybe each person is their own baseline against which we measure degrees of normalness.  I mean, we are pretty normal, aren't we?  It reminds me of the Max Lucado book You Are Special where the Wemmicks put dots and stars on each other.  So maybe it's us that hands out the weirdness cards to some, the above average cards to others, and ultimately hands out the cards that are the shortcut to normal.
