Thank you for sharing your thoughts and story. Authenticity is huge for me in all facets of life! When I see the lack of Authenticity, I'm sadden that we've decided as a society to honor the lack of! We are no longer guided by our higher self; we allow the lower voice to lead. We then react instead or respond. We compare instead or cherishing the differences. I don't Understand why we all want to be like Mike! lol! We would rather be a part of a herd, than stand alone. Funny as this stage of my life I just discovered that I'm a INFJ personality type, so walking alone is a part of my life.

INJF? I'm ISTJ. - Living with authenticity is always worth it. Even if it's awkward. Be you. Do you. Let the world see it for what it is. No shadow.

Also, I think your sharing gives a peak into what someone experiences when their brain-body processes stimuli that is somewhat distinct.

I told my family because I think it is important to understand how people experience life differently and your sharing can help de-mythologize and certainly stigmatize autism.

Thank you for sharing Peter.

Thank you for sharing, it really helped my understanding. Though I was in your class several years ago I still remember you and the class vividly. Keep on rocking!

I agree we are spiritual beings on a spiritual path. I am again on my spiritual journey to God that I had put on hold for 35+ years.

Agreed! But we do have to do the Shadow work to move forward. ISTJ - the Logistician! I can definitely see that!
