Not normal.
The world is not normal. \There are too many awful things that we let happen.
The world is not normal. //Normalcy isn't overrated, not the way I mean it.
Everyone cry with me. No one shall wield their power in such a way that it infringes on the ability of others to live happily ever after.
I suppose that's a bit too... open-ended, but let's start with a few obvious things.
You should not physically force a stranger, a friend, an acquaintance to submit to you.
You should not withhold aid from the most vulnerable in society.
You should not tell a child that they do not matter, nor should you emotionally berate them.
These few things, if we could all just stop doing them... would dramatically improve the overall well-being of the world.
And while we're at it, can we make sure that we're building enough houses for everyone to have a safe and comfortable place to sleep every night? That seems very important to me.

A home is very important for physical and mental health ... Especially for a child. But not all of us can enjoy the security that provides a place to rest and feel safe. In my country we talk about housing policies and the reality is that they deliver it at their convenience. Some years ago they took away from me the opportunity to have my own house and give it to someone else only for political reasons, and now I live in an annex until God and life permit it. I hope it is not much longer.
