Deja vus and other normal things

Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.
~ Albert Camus

These past few months have been...normal. Atleast, that is what I keep hearing.

"It's normal to feel that way."

"All families go through while they readjust. It's normal."

"It's all part of the normal process. It gets better."

"It's a normal grief reaction..."

"You'll find a new normal, I promise."

"You don't have to be brave all the time. Cry, it's normal!"

I love them for their use of the word normal, and for holding me up and supporting me while I slowly plug along waiting to get back there.
