I love the creativity that comes with my autism; and the lateral thinking and left-field insight that helps me help others through the maze of issues they tangle themselves in I am not so keen on the wobbliness, and the deep ache in my heart when I hear of pain in the world, or indeed, of any discomfort in those I love and care about. I have spent much of my life feeling small in a world surrounded by giants, while people respond to me as if the inverse of this is the case. I am lucky enough to have the courage, or brash audacity, or stupidity at times, to override fears and jump at lifes chances.
