  • Turning Points



    Ever experience those moments in life where you have to pause and reflect and realize that what you experienced was actually a turning point?

    I've had several of those moments these past couple of years in just the aspect of being a part of the Autism community.

    Who knew that I'd be so involved, and so intrigued by the people and the families?  It's been a good journey, and I look forward to even more of it.  I'm glad I can help where I can...

    Can you name a few moments that can be called Turning points - those life changing moments? 

    Please, share one or two....  If you make a post about it - just make a comment with the link and I'll update this post with the link.

    when I heard my youngest son was Type One diabetic, Nephew has Aspergers , and My oldest son had Clinical depression. Weigh? OH yeah I feel that turn in my life where all my energy was now on them not me. But you know they make life worth living!

    My life changing moment was when I finally accepted that my marriage is not worth the pain and depression it is causing.  Now that I have "moved on" life is so much sweeter and simpler. I have re-discovered my love of nature and have started writing again.  I have found my happy!

    Hello Friend. I'm finally getting around to your blog. So much has been going on. New beginnings, evolving minds... You understand. I am so grateful for your attention to my postings and your mentions. I am equally impressed to learn of your involvement with the autism community. I employed a young autistic man as a tech intern for a large non-profit, community tech center in San Diego. It was then that I had my first experience with this disability/ability. I must admit, I had a big learning curb to manage, but I was determined. Worth his weight in gold, that one. There was simply no technology problem I gave him that he could not fix or provide recommendation.

    Most recently, I have experienced a turning point of monumental proportions. I've been tweeting for nearly four weeks now. I think I've found a niche for my purpose. Between my blog and Twitter, I am inspired to write, something I've always wanted to do. The concepts I write about have been developing in me for more years than I care to admit. The big push was actually inspired by Ms Lady Gaga, since I began by creating a YouTube account so I could have a playlist of her work. Soon I felt compelled to educate (my profession) others about this amazing woman. Her art inspired me to finally embrace the 'monster' I am, and get on with it already!

    It's a genuine pleasure to tweet with you. I'll check back here again. Peace, my virtual friend.
