Weird is just a side effect of awesome , I'd rather be weird than normal any day.

My mother once asked me as a child, "why can't you just be normal?" I looked at her sadly and my only answer I could offer her was, "I don't know how to be, I only know how to be me." She cried and held me and apologized for saying it. I kept that memory tucked away all this time, it's bittersweet to me, the pain of knowing I'd never fit in but the realization for us both that, I didn't need to.

Search the meaning of "weird."

One of the first definitions is "Supernatural!"

By the time I was about 8, I had heard the phrase, 'listening to the beat of a different drummer' and I knew even then that was me. For some reason I have always been OK with that.
