It is a new year and I’m overflowing with new ideas. I am setting a goal for myself to release all my new sensory creations before Valentine’s Day.
With deep gratitude I’ve been able to connect with over 700 other autistics and neurodivergents and have been able to help them in my small way. I think in January, at least in my part of the world, it is easy to become isolated and feel down this time of year, but it is more important than ever that we try to reach out to others. What this whole world is lacking is a sense of community, and maybe some kindness and empathy. Neurotypicals say that we autistics have no empathy, and yet we are hyper-empathic. What we lack is understanding. Even if it’s only online, I want everyone to feel like they are a part of a community and are accepted for who they are.
I hope you have the best year ever.
