It was easy to dream, his whole life in many ways was lived in a fantasy world, where he imagined he was one thing or another. He became a life actor turning his hand to whatever circumstance he felt were needed to advance himself, he learned to play the game, he went places, and he did get noticed.
But all the while he craved to find out who he really was. Success was fleeting, he found…

Who is normal1? …. by Lady Lee
There was a girl who thought she’s normal
She ambles and lives in a castle

I think being normal is subjective
