Autism

fanimation4231domination:

Autism is a highly misunderstood neurological spectrum disorder, but as we move forward, we are learning more and more.

We can be extroverted
And we can be introverted
Or in the middle

And thats okay

We can be talented or geniuses
And we can be average
Or less than average

And thats okay

We can be challenged
And we can overcome
Or maybe not

And thats okay

We can be hypersensitive
And we can be hyposensitive
Or we can be both

And thats okay

We can have lots of friends
And we can have just a few
Or maybe none

And thats okay

We can empathize
And we can express it
Or maybe we cant

And thats okay

We can love affection
And we can avoid it
Or we can be indifferent

And thats okay

We can communicate
And in any way we can
Or maybe we cant

And thats okay

We can be passing
And not passing
Or somewhere in between

And thats okay

We can have autism
And in any form
Or display

And thats okay

Because not all of us are the same
Our spectrum a color wheel
Each of us with a unique palette of colors
Thats makes up the painting of who we are
But it is not what defines us

And thats okay
