The Virtue is Natural and the Saboteur is Normal.
Naturalness isn’t always the norm.
We don’t often use the word natural unless we’re speaking of health food stores or a trip to the country. We don’t usually refer to ourselves as natural either, rather, we refer to ourselves as normal. I’m normal. Is that normal? You’re not normal! I’ll never be normal, and I don’t want to be normal.

Kindly ponder on the nature of all things. Allow yourself to question what you think you know. Practice feeling what seems natural to you and what’s normal for you. Naturalness promotes prosperity or a healthy environment for growth, while normalcy can sometimes be apathetic instead of empathetic.
Remember the virtuous qualities are always natural because they create awareness and joy, harmony and beauty. The saboteurs teach us to be aware of our true natures.
Peace be with you
