Youre Exceptionally Creative If You See The

Correct Image (Only 1/100 People Can Do

This!)

What do you see in this drawing that baffled so many

people?
Only 1/100 guessed right, but for the rest it was completely mind-boggling.

Try again. The trick that helped some was to cover the darker side of the image with their
hand.
Here comes the spoiler
Its actually a man with a cowboy hat!

It took some people an entire hour to figure this one out, while the lucky few were able to see it
right away. If you belong to the latter group, you can consider yourself a highly creative person
as studies show.

Creative processes have been considered highly abstract and unquantifiable practices, often
considered as bursts of sudden inspiration that came out of nowhere. However, scientists have
been able to conduct certain researches to catch the creative process in order to analyze the
distinctive features that creative people have. What they came to realize was that creative people
tend to use much bigger parts of their brain during the thought process. This gives them the
opportunity to use more associations and memory when trying to decode something.

In the case of image deconstruction, creative people have more to work with when looking at an
unknown image which means they would much more quickly collect the previously known parts
to build ideas.

Therefore, it is no wonder that to some people this puzzle was way too easy making them
wonder what the catch was. However, you shouldnt think something is wrong with you if no
matter how long you looked at the drawing, all you could see was the distorted image of a bat or
a rat. It just means that you process new information in a different way, usually in a slightly more
formal way, following certain known rules and associations, whereas for creative people, this
process includes more outside the box kind of thinking with more options to choose from.

This drawing wasnt the first one to spur up the conversation about the effect our thinking
process has on the way we perceive the world. The famous duck-rabbit dilemma presented by
American psychologist Joseph Jastrow in 1899, provided starting point for the research on the
topic.

Before reading any further, stop and look at the drawing.

What do you see? A duck or a rabbit? Can you easily find the other animal? Can you switch from
one perspective to the other with ease, or does it take some effort?
For this drawing, there is not a wrong or right guess, (even though most people guess duck first)
it is rather a question of the ability to quickly switch from one perception to the other.

All of these features count when determining if you are a highly or average creative person.
According to the research Richard Wiseman did with a group of fellow psychologists at the
University of Edinburgh, creative people actually perceive the world differently, as they are more
able to see things from many different angles.

Using the duck-rabbit drawing, the participants had to answer questions not much different than
the ones above. Additionally, they were asked to list as many unusual usages for given every-day
objects in a short amount of time. The results were clear: people who could effortlessly switch
from one perception to another, also did much better in assigning new purpose to known objects.

It is a much known trait of creative people to easily think of alternative ways and to find
connection between two apparently unrelated concepts. Their brains are just that much faster
when working on interpreting different aspects of a concept. Therefore, the results prove that
there is a difference to how highly creative people perceive the world as opposed to average
creative ones.

Finally, if it wasnt for creative geniuses and their ability to see things from many different
perspectives, we would have been deprived of the many discoveries and innovations that helped
shape the world as we know it.

Of Your Body In 4 Weeks

Exercise can be tough because its not always easy to figure out which ones to do for specific
body parts. Additionally, it can be hard to find the time to do them. Thats why Ive found these
seven exercises that target every single part of your body and only take 10 minutes a day!

1. Plank

Planks are an amazing exercise to tone your glutes, back, and arms! It only takes 60 seconds a
day (if you cant do 60 seconds work your way up with the plank challenge!) and is super easy.
To do a proper plank:

Cross your hands together

Place your elbows about shoulder width apart under your chest

Curl in your tail bone to straighten your back

 Hold for up to 60 seconds

2. Push-ups

Pushups are perfect for exercising your chest and arms. In order to do a pushup correctly:

Place your hands chest width apart

Lower your arms until your upper arm is parallel to the floor

Push back up to the original position

3. Squats
In order to do a perfect squat:

Keep your feet flat on the ground

Ensure your knees are behind your toes

Your hips should be below the top of your knee

Dont round your upper back

Keep your chest up

4. Ball Twist

Heres a great one for your core. All you have to do it:

Start with your back against a wall

Bend your knees outward

Hold a medicine ball at chest level

Slowly twist from side to side

5. Table Top Leg Extension

This exercise is great for your thighs and bottom! Its a great variation on your typical tabletop
exercise. For added benefit, use some ankle and wrist weights. These will give you some added
resistance and more exercise.

Prop yourself up on your hands and knees

Stretch one leg up and back

At the same time, stretch the opposite hand up and forward

Hold for five seconds

Return to starting position and work opposite side

6. Dead Bug Exercise

Despite the creepy name, this exercise is also great for your core. Its called the dead bug
exercise because you sort of look like a bug lieing on its back. Weird, I know, but stick with
me!

Lie on your back and stretch your arms up to touch your knees

Lower one leg and arm down until it almost touches the floor, keeping the opposite leg
and arm in the same position

Return to the initial position and work the other half

7. Downward Dog Leg Pull

If youre familiar with the yoga pose downward dog, this exercise will feel right at home to
you. Its a great way to work your core, thighs and bottom!

Start in the downward dog position, on all fours pressing back into your heels

Lift one leg straight back and up like the top image above

Bring that leg down and in to your chest

Repeat on the other side

The Four-Week Plan

Now that you have the exercises, here is the four-week plan to get you toned and in shape!

Week 1:

Do the following for six days:

2 minutes plank;

1 minute push-ups;

1 minute dead bug;

1 minute downward dog leg pull;

1 minute ball twist;

2 minutes plank.

Have a ten-second break between the exercises.

Week 2:

Alternate the following sets for 6 days.

Set 1:

3 minutes plank;

3 minutes dead bug;

3 minutes downward dog leg pull.

Have a 15-second break between the exercises.

Set 2:

3 minutes ball twist;

3 minutes push-ups;

3 minutes downward dog leg pull.

Have a 15-second break between the exercises.

Week 3: repeat the Week 1 set.

Week 4: repeat the Week 2 sets.

If you follow this for the full 4 weeks, youll be looking and feeling better than ever before!
Good luck!

13 Things to Remember If You Love A Person

With Anxiety
Jake Mcspirit
739K Shares

Anxiety is tough, isnt it? Not just for the people that have it, but for you the people that stick
with them while theyre going through it. Its emotionally taxing on both ends, its physically
demanding at times, and of course mentally demanding most of the time.

Plans have to be changed to accommodate the anxiety. Situations have to be avoided at times.
Planning has to be just that bit more thorough. Emotional needs can change daily. Its a lot to
work through, and it can be hard to get in their head to understand on top of that.

Its understandably confusing at times, so consider this your cheat sheet. 13 things for you to
remember when loving someone with anxiety.

1. They are more than just their anxiety

No one likes to be defined by one attribute of themselves. If you truly want to be supportive of
someone with anxiety, remind them that you appreciate the individual behind the anxiety.
Recognise that they are more than just their anxiety.

It sounds like it would be common sense to do so, we dont go around seeing people by one
solitary attribute in most cases, but people have a tendency to become blind-sighted by mental
health issues. They are still a human being with all the complexities that everyone else has.
Please, remember that.

2. They can get tired easily

Anxiety is exhausting. It seems like the only people that understand how tiring it really can be is
people with anxiety themselves. Anxiety causes people to live in hyper-tense states. They are
always on alert, their mind is very rarely settled, and their body is always ready to fight or flight.
With the hypertension comes fatigue. Situations that people without anxiety can just breeze
through are more tiring for those with anxiety.
Ever had a stressful work week, where every day you woke up thinking wow, I really hope I get
a break soon? Thats an anxious persons every day, and its tiring. Remember that next time
youre pushing someone with anxiety to be more productive.

3. They can get overwhelmed easily

Tying into the previously noted hyper-tense state, theyre also overwhelmed easily because of it.
Theyre aware of everything going on around them. Every noise, every action, every smell, every
light, every person, every object. For someone existing in such a hyper-alert state a situation that
doesnt seem that overwhelming (e.g. the thought of more than a handful of people talking in a
room) can cause their head to spin. You can read more about that here.

When trying to encourage someone with anxiety to go somewhere, just keep in mind that the
stimuli you enjoy can just as easily be overwhelming for them. Try not to lock them into the
situation. Ensure they know they can leave and are capable of doing so at any point.

4. They are well aware their anxiety is often irrational

Being aware of the irrationality does not stop the thoughts from racing. It does not stop the
thinking of hundreds of different worst-case scenarios. If it was as easy as saying okay, thats
irrational no point worrying about it, the majority of those living with anxiety would not have
problems with it anymore.

One of the worst things about anxiety is how aware of the irrationality they can be. Pointing out
that its irrational doesnt help they already know this. What they need is compassion,
understanding, and support very rarely do they need advice on how irrational and pointless
their anxiety it (because thats not even advice.) You can learn more about that here.

5. They can communicate how they feel (you just have to

actually listen)
Having anxiety does not mean that they are incapable of expressing or communicating. (Unless
theyre panicking, in which case they likely cant. Dont try to get them to either!) They still like
to talk and they still like to speak for themselves. They will tell you how they feel.

Often when people think someone with anxiety, or really any problem whatsoever, cant or wont
communicate its because theyre choosing not to, and its usually because the other party has
been entirely dismissive the last time they opened up. So next time when you think theyre
incapable of speaking for themselves, bite your tongue and give them the opportunity to actually
speak. Then take the time to listen.

6. They dont need someone constantly asking are you

okay? while theyre panicking
When you see someone panicking and you know they have anxiety, do you really need to ask
are you okay?

You already know the answer. Their heart is pounding a million miles an hour, their hands are
clamming up, their chest is tightening, their limbs are vibrating from all the adrenalin and their
mind has just sunken into the limbic systems fight or flight response. Honestly? Part of them
probably thinks theyre dying. So instead of asking are you okay? try something a little more
helpful and constructive. Good examples would be:

Remember your breathing

Remember <insert whatever technique that has helped them before>

Would you like help me to help you to somewhere quieter/safer/calmer?

Im here if you need me. (At this point, you should leave them alone unless they ask)

Youre panicking, it wont last. Youve got past this before, youll get past it again

But the key to all of this: If they ask you to leave them alone leave them alone! They are
experienced in handling their anxiety; let them get through it however they see fit.

7. They appreciate you sticking by them

Anxiety is rough on everyone involved, which means you too. They understand that, they
understand their irrationality; they understand youve not done some things you wouldve liked
to because they couldnt. Theyre not oblivious to what it takes to support them.

If theres one thing in common that youll find across the board for everyone with anxiety, its
that they over think they over think a lot. Part of this over thinking always comes back to the
people that have supported them, always. Your support doesnt go unmissed no matter how
subtle you may think its been.

8. They can find it hard to let it go

Part of anxiety is the constant over thinking, but to really understand this we need to understand
where the over thinking stems from. When anyone is faced with a traumatic incident in their life,
which most people with anxiety have had more than their fair share of, the memory (if not
properly dealt with) can end up stored in part of the limbic system of the brain that the mind uses
to determine if we are at risk. You can find out more about that here.

The memory is stored in a completely different manner and region of the brain in comparison to
an everyday memory that gets filed away. This causes the brain to react differently to the
memory. The brain is actively seeking to make links between the traumatic memory and the
present situation its in (partly the cause of the hyper-tense state.)
When the brain is caught in this cycle, letting go of things can be very difficult. When the brain
is trained to remain in this cycle through prolonged anxiety, letting go of pretty much anything
can be a tough task. People with anxiety cannot always just let it go, their brain wont let them,
so please dont give them a hard time about it.

9. They can find change difficult (even if its expected)

Everyone has a comfort zone, anxiety or not. Pushing that comfort zone can be difficult for even
the most well-adjusted person, so for people with anxiety it can be even more challenging. This
is not to be confused with the sentiment that those with anxiety dislike change or pushing their
comfort zones, because they will likely thrive once theyre actually in the process of doing so.
They can just find it a lot more difficult to bring themselves to do so.

The one relief people with anxiety tend to get from their anxiety is when theyre allowed to be in
their place of comfort with nothing major changing around them. When theyre faced with a big
change and uprooting, it can take them a lot longer to settle back down and establish that zone
again. Just remember to have a little more patience and understanding for those with anxiety.
Theyre trying, they really are.

10. They arent (always) intentionally ignoring you

Part of managing anxiety is controlling the inner monologue that comes with it. Sometimes this
can be a very attention-consuming act. The strangest things can set off obscure thought patterns
for those with anxiety. If they suddenly drift out of the conversation, theres a good chance
theyre over thinking something thats just been said or theyre trying to calm their thoughts
down. Both take immense concentration.

Theyre not ignoring you; or not intentionally at least. Theyre just trying not to have a mental
breakdown right there in front of you. You dont need to ask are you okay? and you especially
dont need to quiz them on what you just said. If its important, try gently bringing it back up
when they seem more attentive.

Their mind can be a war zone at times. They will drop out of conversations unexpectedly and
they will feel bad for doing so if they realise it. Reassure them that you understand and ensure
theyve fully digested any important news you may have discussed, especially if it involves them
handling some responsibility (maybe make a note of it too!)

11. They arent always present

As mentioned in the above point, theyre not always present in a conversation, but its not just
conversation that can trigger this reaction. Everyday events can cause everyone to get lost in
contemplation at some point or another, but for those with anxiety almost everything can serve as
a contemplative trigger. They will recede into the depths of their mind quite regularly and youll
likely notice the vacancy on their face. Contrary to what romantic movies suggest, its not always
cute to come up and spook them while theyre lost in thought (though sometimes it definitely can
be!)

Gently nudge them back to reality regularly. Remind them where they are, what theyre doing
(not literally, theyre anxious they dont have short term memory loss), and to appreciate it.
Theyll greatly appreciate you doing so. You can learn more about mindfulness and how it relates
to anxiety here.

12. They dont always see it as a limitation (nor should you!)

Its okay to be an anxious person. Sure, it can be a struggle at times, but its not always a
limitation. Anxiety has molded part of the person in question and ultimately has the potential of
bettering them as a person. It can cause them to see the world in a very different way and often
this can be for the best. The symptoms can suck, the over thinking can suck, the missing out on
certain events can suck, everything in life has the potential to suck. Just because it can doesnt
mean that those with anxiety choose to see it that way; at least, not all the time.

Remember that part of their personality is the anxiety. Remember that part of them, the
compilation of life experiences that they are made of, is the anxiety. It can have some benefits
too, and many people with anxiety (when getting better) choose to see them. You should too.

13. They are awesome!

Just like everybody else on Earth, they are awesome! (Thats why you love them, right?) Its
pretty easy to get focused on the doom and gloom of any issue, especially ones involving mental
health, but part of overcoming them is remembering the awesomeness that came before and will
come after the issue.

Choose to see the benefits. Choose to see the upside of the situation. Choose to see the
awesomeness. If they can, so can you.

Cheat sheet over, done, finished. Keep these in mind and your whole experience may be a lot
easier then again, it may not be either. Were humans and were unique. What works for one
may not work for the other, but there is one thing that always works: loving compassion. If you
take anything away from this article, just let it be that everyone especially those struggling
deserves loving compassion, so spread it around.

7 Ridiculously Simple Ways To Gain More
Time In Your Busy Day!

Alice Dartnell
123 Shares

There just isnt enough hours in the day.

I cant remember the last time I had quiet time to myself.

I would love to but I am afraid I am too busy.

I am sorry I am late (again).

Be honest here. Hands up if these are the kind of comments you say on a regular basis and I
dont just mean one a week or month, but pretty much every day.

Im fully aware that the physics of time have not changed. There are 24 hours in a day, exactly
the same as there was 1,000 years ago I know, but it just feels like time is more squeezed now,
and that our days seem more busy. Our days can feel so busy to the point that sometimes we feel
exhausted, worn out and rushed by the end of it. Some of you might even feel that youve failed
at having a productive day or ticked anything off from your ever-growing to-do list.

But I am going to let you in on my secret you CAN get more time in your day. Not physical
minutes but space in your day to do more if you follow these 7 ridiculously simple ways to gain
more time in your busy day.
Follow them well and you might even have time for yourself, whether thats a long soak in the
bath, picking up the guitar you promised yourself youd start to learn or simply coming home at
a sensible hour that allows you to cook a meal from scratch.

Secret time tip 1: Keep a log

In order to work out where you are spending your time, I suggest you keep a time log. You will
need to do this for at least a week to get a full cycle but ideally do it for a few weeks to get a
broader picture, especially if like me no two weeks look the same. Log how you are spending
your time hour by hour. This is a time to be pedantic and specific. After you have logged a week
or two, take a close look at how you are honestly spending your time, not how you think you are
spending your time. Perhaps you are spending more time on your commute, dressing the kids,
making dinner, or nattering to your acquaintances by the photocopier more than you thought?

Secret time tip 2: Batch and bulk

This has to be one of my favorite techniques for saving time. I batch and bulk the majority of
tasks, in the office and at home. This works especially well for chores and necessary (yet boring)
tasks too!

For example, lets take your homemade lunches you take to work. Firstly well done for taking
the healthier and cheaper route (buying your lunch every day at work is said to cost us 1,800 a
year). But to save time you really need to get on board with meal prepping. (FYI #mealprep
returns over 4 million results on Instagram). Rather than spend time each night making
tomorrows lunches, chose one specific day to do the whole batch (I prefer Sunday evenings).
Whilst I agree making all your meals takes the same amount of time whether you do it day by
day or in one go, it is the preparation, shopping and washing up that youll see the reward,
having to only do this once.

This batch and bulk technique can be applied to most things. My husband writes all the reports
for his team in one batch, my dad does all his accounts on a Monday and I dedicate time to do
my emails in chunks rather than one by one as they come through. Itll save you time and gain
you focus.

Secret time tip 3: Eliminate (or at least reduce)

Take a look at your time (or better still your time log) and see what chores, tasks and activities
you could eliminate. Thats right completely get rid of! This will work for simple, repetitive or
boring chores (I dont suggest you use this as an excuse to your boss for not writing the weekly
analysis).

For example, perhaps you could give some household chores to the kids, or automate some
systems (for example direct debit payments and automatic renewals). Perhaps you can buy items
such as toiletries, tinned food and cleaning products in larger quantities so you have to refill them
less frequently. If you cant completely eliminate some tasks, then at least try to cut down the
time spent on tasks.

Secret time tip 4: Turn off distractions

We all like to think we can multi-task, but in reality, we really cant. (I know youre thinking
but I can you cant). Mute the distractions and I guarantee that you will get things done
quicker. Stop responding to every ping and beep your phone makes and focus on the task at
hand. I guarantee this will make you more efficient, which in turn, gives you the gift of more
time!

Secret time tip 5: Dont procrastinate

I am not an ethnologist* but I am pretty sure that other mammals in the animal world dont
procrastinate like the human does. I dont remember watching a wildlife show, where the lion
whilst hunting, became indecisive about what species of antelope to hunt. He just goes for it. Nor
do I recall ever having watched a dog, unsure whether to case the ball that his owner has so
lovingly thrown.

Procrastinating, pondering and mulling over options is a sure fire way to eat up your precious
time, because the more you dither, the more time you are wasting. I truly speak from the heart on
this one as I used to be terrible at making simple decisions. Complex, long term decisions at
work were a doddle but when it came to what restaurant to choose, what plans I should make for
my in-laws visit or what to wear to the party, my mind was a jumble! Whilst you might only
have wasted 20 minutes here or there, over the weeks, that adds up! Now, I limit decision-
making time to a few minutes on unimportant or reversible decisions. If you still cant make a
decision, then simply ask someone for their opinion and go with that.

* Ethnology is the branch of anthropology that compares and analyzes the characteristics of
different peoples and the relationship between them

Secret time tip 6: Look for dead time

Dont write off the importance of even the smallest snippet of seconds. For example, spending 10
minutes each day mindlessly waiting for the bus to work every morning doesnt sound a lot, but
that is 50 minutes in a working week, and if you are making the same journey back, that is a
whopping 100 minutes a week you are wasting your time on. Now before you say but Alice, I
have to get the bus to work my point is about looking for this dead time as I call it, and finding
ways to fill it productively. Perhaps listen to an audio book, write your to-do list or use the time
to text people back. I have flash cards to help me learn Japanese which I whip out during dead
time.

Secret time tip 7: Put a time to things

This is a tip I have only been doing myself this year but the results have been huge when it
comes to helping me save time. On every to-do list, I allocate an amount of time I think I should
be dedicating to it (or physically can). This helps me on two levels first, because it keeps my
timings disciplined (when the allocated 20 minutes are up, the task is done) and second because
it helps me set expectations. I can quickly see if I am packing too much into my day. The other
week I had a to-do list that was starting to come off the page. When I allocated my timings to do
it, I realized I would need 9 hours to complete it yet I only had 5 hours! I could then see what
was urgent for that day, and what could be put off. If I hadnt had done this, then no doubt I
would have been beating myself up at the end of the day for not completing everything off the
list!

Bonus tip!
My bonus tip for you all, before you begin implementing my secret time tips first ask yourself
why you want this extra time.

Do you want to just feel less busy, or spend more time with your family or free up your Saturday
morning to take those jazz dance classes you always said you would? By identifying this, you
have a strong motivation to stick to these tips. For example, the next time you start
procrastinating, when you remember that being quicker will allow you more time to see your
family will be a sure fire motivation to crack on!

I hope these tips help you like they have helped me!

I am one of those people that want to do it all I want to try as many things as possible to get the
most out of life. For that reason, I want to make sure I cram as much as physically possible into
my days (without burning out like I did 10 years ago).

Following these tips will help you enjoy the now, be more productive and spend time on the
things you love to do!

Dare To Be A Weirdo. This Is What Makes

You A Unique Limited Edition.

Jenny Marchal
1K Shares
We live in a world that tells us we need to stand out from the crowd to be successful, but on the
other hand expressing your individualism can be deemed negative; the more you blend in with
everyone else, the more compliant and safe your life will be.

You express your individual style, opinions, thoughts and beliefs and youre immediately told by
society that youre weird, attention-seeking or eccentric. Trying to be yourself can be a game of
judgement and many people dont dare to take that step for fear theyll be judged or rejected for
who they really are and this only leads to ultimate unhappiness.

Whether you love her music or not, Lady Gaga has been a pioneer and representation of
individuality, creativity and just plain weirdness and does she care? Who knows, were not inside
her head thinking her thoughts, but one things for sure shes not afraid to keep emulating her
weirdness and advocates the need to show that weirdness is just our true beauty shining through.

Fuelling Bullying For Drive And Success

Being a naturally creative child, Lady Gaga didnt shy away from being different at school and
that inevitably brought negativity from others. Bullying was a big part of her life and it was
mainly down to her daring to have her own sense of style. For anyone who has been bullied, it is
something that can affect the beliefs and thoughts you have of yourself for years. For Lady Gaga,
she channelled this into her drive to succeed and just follow her dreams and passions.

Bullying really stays with you your whole life and it really, really never goes away. And I know
youre using words like superstar and most-Googled and billions of YouTube [views]. But I
was never the winner. I was always the loser. And that still stays with me. And do I want to stick
it to anybody? No. I just wanna make music.
She shows bullying can make or break someone choosing to go against the hurtful
comments and negativity can be hard but can also be a huge fuel in moving forward being
your best, creative, weird self.

Rejection Is Not Failure. Be Yourself To Succeed

Being a classically trained pianist, Lady Gaga pursued her creative talents to break the music
industry but it wasnt easy. At 19, she signed to Def Jam records but not as the wacky-dressed
lady we see today. Despite her love of being different, she tamed herself down in order to try and
fit in with the record company ideals. After a few months she was dropped, it seemed she wasnt
gaining success with her mainstream image. A lesson that compromising on your true self will
never truly get you to where you want to be. Would she have been successful without the
outlandish costumes and hairstyles? Possibly. Would she have been happy? Possibly not.

Embracing Uniqueness For Success

Embracing her weirdness and getting back on track lead Lady Gaga to get noticed and landed
herself a job as a songwriter for Interscope Records. From then on her success only got better
and better. Making the decision to claim back her unique style and with the resilience she built
up from negative feedback, she was able to create music in a way she probably only dreamed of.

Embrace The Weirdness In Order To Love Yourself For

Who You Are
If Lady Gaga is to teach us anything, its the importance of accepting ourselves for who we really
are. Whatever your journey in life, you cant make the most of each and every positive path
without the ability to love yourself. To live a truly happy and successful life, you have to be true
to yourself, ignore the naysayers and the criticisers and be pleased with the person you are.
Happiness cant be found outside of yourself, it can only come from within and it all starts
with accepting yourself and embracing your unique qualities.

Revolutionising The Concept Of Whats Normal

Her battles with not fitting in and bouncing back from constant negativity from others around
her, has made Lady Gaga a true advocate for those in society who are marginalised and made to
feel abnormal for not slotting in to societys ideals. Her strong empathy for people who are
victimised for just trying to be themselves are not only shown through her unique sense of style
and personality but through her songs.

Love her or hate her, Lady Gaga represents hope and inspiration for many of her fans and shows
that were all unique and weird in our own way. Be yourself be the true weirdo that you are
because in reality, theres no such thing as normal.
