and political sides, normal doesn't exist in the sense of the word.

I don't think enough people really put thought into the word normal. Normal to me seems like it's defined by one's perspective and no dictionary can hold a definition that applies to everyone equally. Very excellent write and an eye-opener for those who haven't contemplated the word. Good job and great read!!!
