Being one in a million

As we grow older and wiser it seems things get so complicated and harsh that it is so hard to get a definite answer. Not everything in life adds up as it should like 1 + 1 = 2.

You study hard you might still fail, you win the lottery of 1 million but take away all the taxes and whatever fees that come along at the end you don't really get a million do you.

Things are never as simple as it seems and if you ask me its kinda sad that it isn't.
Back when we were small, yes meant a yes, a no meant a no. Clear and simple. There weren't maybes or what ifs back then.

So should we stop dreaming of perfect endings and succumb to the pressures and standard that the society has set for us or should we strive for more?

For anyone that has did anything worth doing, the biggest fear was not being shunned by the society for being weird or "not normal" or whatever half ass reason you can think of. No, the biggest fear for people like these was failure itself. The fear of being unable to be the very best they could be.

Hold to your beliefs and not be ashamed of wanting more than what is normal given because being normal just means your roughly the same as the 999,999 people out of a million people out there and the last time I checked being one in a million was so much cooler.
