This week kicks off Annual Autism Awareness month. You’ll notice there are no “Light It Up Blue” signs or over abundance of puzzle pieces flying around this year as we are currently fighting a historic war against an unprecedented, deadly and invisible enemy. I won’t even say this viruses name and give it anymore energy ..we’ll just call it “C”. Do I miss Autism Awareness Month? Nope, never liked it to begin with and truth is ...we’ve never been more aware of Autism ...then at this very moment.
For at this very moment ...we are all ONE.
We are all aware:
Of what it feels like to be dependent on another person to get through the day or even for our very survival
We are all aware :
Of what it’s like to feel so completely overwhelmed, overloaded, scared , not in control of our lives ..that we want to just run away screaming and escape ..but we cannot
We are all aware :
Of what it’s like to not be able to make sense of what is happening around us or to us or what the world is doing. So we resort to routine, repetition, creature comforts that soothe us to make us feel better.
We are all aware:
Of what’s it’s like to wake up each and every morning after morning filled with hope that today will bring a miracle or at least maybe some relief
We are all aware:
Of how much we all deeply desire to be loved, understood, respected , valued and accepted.
We are all aware:
Of what it feels like to desperately try to share your voice ...and be heard.
We are all potently aware: That We Are One
