Normal Life and Normal Love

This whole monologue below came up in a conversation with someone today. I just thought I would share.




I don't want a rock star. I don't want a movie star. I don't want a doctor or a lawyer. I don't want a hockey player. I don't want a football player. What I want is someone who will accept me for who I am, never try to change me, and learn to love me.   I dated men who played for the San Francisco 49ers. I dated [a movie star]. I dated comedians and magicians. What I want is a normal guy. A normal guy who does what he likes to do, goes where he likes to go, and cares about me enough to include me.

I'm just a normal person myself. I'm not a superhero with superpowers. I'm not a rock star, a movie star, or a world-famous fashion model.  I'm not skinny. I'm not fat. I'm not amazing, but I'm not ordinary. I'm not worthy of being put on a pedestal, but I don't mind it when I am. I'm just a normal girl. 

All I want is a normal life and a normal love. Because those two things combined are extraordinary.
