I could sum up my younger life in one word.-Misunderstanding. Most of my school life was spend in protection mode. Which made any 'benefit' I could get from socializing, useless.

Some days I just want to climb inside my own skin and hide.

Old memories are always there. Like they happened yesterday.

That sad sinking feeling you get when you don't fit in even with other autistics

Don't be sad that I'm autistic. Love me for who I am. All of me. Some things are difficult for me but I'm okay as I am.

I look out onto this world I'm in and hope that one day all people will be accepted and valued as they are.

Standing alone, walking my own path. Rearranging my thoughts. Pushing worries away. Climbing out of the fog, towards freedom of mind.

Dreaming is escaping. Daydreaming is a form of self protection. Dissociation is Survival

Winners gather together to fuel hope

Hug the shore

Entrepreneurs in accepting risk achieve security for all. In embracing change they ensure social and economic stability.

Puerto Rico is one of those places you can be as quiet or as crazy as you want, because there's so much nightlife. I have to take the craziness carefully.

Justice is the first virtue of those who command, and stops the complaints of those who obey.

Crazy people who are judged to be harmless are allowed an enormous amount of freedom ordinary people are denied.

I was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. My family was not nationally known as being a literary family, though my mother and my mother's side of the family in general were interested in literature.

You should wake up every day looking for the trouble you can get into.

To love is to undress our names.

If you shut your door to all errors truth will be shut out.
