Description

This book is a collection of reflections and thoughts from a person on the Autism spectrum and their perspective on many different topics of life, communication, employment, selfhood, selflessness and how a person on the Autism spectrum interacts and processes the world around them.

It deals with many of the issues both internal and external and from a personal perspective that many people with autism have to deal with one way or another in their lives.

It also gives a foundation of what a person with autism can gain through experience and self reflection on certain things that have happened in their lives. The author would like to inspire hope, drive and positivity to people on the spectrum and provide the thought that happiness and helping others is truly the key.
