Anais Nin & non conformity

“I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world.

I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women.

To enter ordinary relationships - I want ecstasy.

I am a neurotic -- in the sense that I live in my world.

I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself.”

- Anais Nin

--- In many ways I can relate to her writings. She has a voice of her own never caring about what people think – she is a little unstable, in unstability you find your voice, in unstability comes creativity.. yet she gave women an individual voice to be in touch with who they really are, their sexuality their belief. In her boldness, outspokenness she was very sort after. She was passionate, sensual. I admire for her views and her stand and that quote above is like an affirmation a stand for non conformity.---
