No Such Thing as Normal

What do you consider normal? It is hard to pin down, isn't it? I guess you could go with the majority as "normal" but the majority could just as easily be abnormal. I can think of some things that I believe to be normal, like going to school, but in some places that is not even an option in life and therefore by the majority rule is not normal. So in one case a specific task is considered normal and in another it is not. So then which one is really normal? They cannot both be normal. The only thing I can come up with is there is no such thing as normal. At least not in the absolute sense. Normality is shifting and subjective to the situation. If there is not an absolute normality I have to believe there is really no such thing as normality.
