Are You Just Average?

You wake up, eat your breakfast, and get ready for work or school. You listen to your favorite tunes during the day, and maybe you hit the gym or go for a jog. 

When you get home, you might do some chores, chat with friends, and spend some time chilling out, watching TV or scrolling through your phone. 

Before you know it, it’s bedtime and you hit the sack, ready to do it all again tomorrow. 

Sound familiar?

That’s because you’re just average, like everyone else! 

This article highlights why being ‘average’ is not a drawback but rather something worth celebrating.

The Basics

From the morning cup of coffee to the last yawn before sleep, these everyday things are what make us human. 

Everyone loves a good meal, a solid night’s rest, and the simple act of breathing.

These shared necessities are what place us all in the category of ordinary.

So, when you’re indulging in your evening meal or hitting the snooze button one more time, remember these experiences bind us all.

Emotions

Joy, sorrow, anger, thrill – these are emotions everyone goes through. 

Experiencing a wide array of emotions is entirely normal and contributes to our human identity.

Feeling thrilled about a friend’s triumph, annoyed in traffic, or anxious before an important event – these feelings are components of the ordinary human experience.

Ups and Downs

Here’s the news – everyone has their sunshine and rain. 

Every person confronts challenges and encounters failures along the way. 

Whether it’s a kitchen mishap, a blunder at work, or grappling with a complex decision, we all stumble upon obstacles.

These common experiences are what make us all ordinary – and it’s these ordinary instances that build our strength and resilience.

Connections

Be it sharing secrets with your confidant, spending quality time with family, or making casual conversation with a shop assistant, we all crave social contact. 

Craving connections with others is hardwired in us. 

This mutual human need places us all in the average bracket – and serves as a reminder that we’re all in the same boat.

Wrapping Up

In the end, being average doesn’t mean you’re less than anyone else. 

It means you’re part of a huge, diverse group of people who share common experiences and emotions.

And there’s something truly beautiful about that.

So, the next time you feel down about being ‘average,’ remember that being average is being human, and there’s nothing more extraordinary than that.

Spread the word. Share your love.
