If it weren’t for the experiences I have with my autism, I wouldn’t be a writer. So I’m very thankful to the Lord for guiding me through those experiences. They have blessed me with a valuable lesson: HOLD A POSITIVE OUTLOOK ON LIFE.

Determination and Faith
No matter how far away a dream may be (a dream home, school of your dreams, or a dream car), the truth is this: DETERMINATION and FAITH are the two weapons needed to make a dream become a reality. Without these weapons, a dream would be just a dream.

The Acquaintance: Part 2
I saw him again yesterday. He was with his friends. I sat down. No worries, I’m practicing social distance. So I did not sit next to him. Not only did he smile and wave at me. HE WINKED AGAIN!
