Personal Narrative: Am I Insane

Decent Essays
Am I insane or not insane is the question I always ask myself. Yet, in the world we live in, nobody’s sane or normal. However, if we could rate the average person on a one to ten scale on how normal they are what would that say if we calculated everyone’s normality? How would the data show how messed up we humans are? How can I even say we? I’m not considered human after all. Nor can I say that I’m some godly figure. Not with this curse placed on me. Well, that’s what I like to call it at least. Now I will have to explain my curse. But for me to do that, sadly, I will have to say the most cliché thing ever. Ever since I can remember, I was able to tell a person’s future. Before everything seems exciting and frazzle dazzle there is something

And that I did.…

    What Was I Doing I woke up at eight o’clock in the morning like any other day. I got out of the bed and pulled open the curtains to see what a beautiful day it was outside. The sky was crystal blue; the sun was shining, with a slight breeze. I could not have asked for a more perfect day.

My anticipation cuts through the mixture of country music and old rock ‘n’ roll filling in the car.
