I think it is one of the greatest social evils of our time that everything and everyone should fit into a standard. This ‘normal’ as a way of being that is absolutely desirable... Mind you, we are talking about relatively arbitrarily defined norms that can change from generation to generation, sometimes even faster. Outside of these norms, acceptance is very limited...

I don't know what David gave up to be able to be this ‘normal’. The bad thing is: he himself will never find out...
