The final paragraph you added, I find especially insightful. It also bothers me that my inner world is too vast to share - not the fact that it is vast, but that I can't convey it all in one expansive vision. Then, when I think of all the worlds that are held and contained in so many instances of experience, simultaneously - not…Read more

I'm guessing it was really important processing for you. And I found it interesting. It's quite an enduring topic - the gulf between how others perceive us and how we experience ourselves. The question of translating ourselves into something that others will understand in the same spirit that we…Read more

I'd like to think that I can see the depth of effort (intention, energy and courage) in translating and telling your story. I wish I could respond in depth with my own thoughts and experience, but there's not enough of me to compose something - I'm still wanting the right alignment of factors to give me the momentum…Read more

That's about it, Rondo, it runs deep! (And I'm very happy you found my reply helpful.)

While I don't believe autism is a disease, it is a disability. Autists are at a grave disadvantage in navigating life, and much of that disadvantage is social. The failure of meaningful social connection isn't just down to autists…Read more

I received it via email and really enjoyed reading it. Gave me lots to think about. You have had experiences different to mine and the perspective from them is valuable.

I've started photographing them. They move. Prior to this my best friends were vegetables. They were easier to photograph. I digress.

I feel somewhat of a fraud to present anything I've created/captured as 'art', but I do need to aspire to something. So, I'm going to post some of my cat pics, and it would…Read more

There are brighter minds out there than mine. It does bring some happiness though, to be eloquently muddling, and I hope you find some happiness in your being.

Ok, I'm confused. Where are these 'free' friendships? Don't all relationships come at a price? In what way are friendships built that they don't extract a toll - a cost - to those participating? Doesn't it demand energy from the participants? An emotional, mental, physical and temporal investment? Or, let's say, a garden…Read more
