“I don’t really want to become normal, average, standard. I want merely to gain in strength, in the courage to live out my life more fully, enjoy more, experience more. I want to develop even more original and more unconventional traits.”

Absolutely. Wanting to be “normal” — to live a peaceful, steady life and grow in ways that aren't flashy or dramatic — is perfectly valid. Growth doesn't always have to be loud or public. Sometimes, the most meaningful changes happen quietly, in the background, as we build better habits, deepen relationships, and learn more about ourselves. That’s real progress, too.

And that's okay. it's okay to just want to be normal and grow in other areas of life
