But I'd have to disagree with my argument. Well, my alleged argument. I would not say that you should try to live outside the autism "box." And if I've implied that in the past...I'm sorry! Maybe I should say I wouldn't tell you that today. I know that autism is not a syndrome, or a disease that can be cured. Over the past 8 years, I've learned more and more how God can reach people through whatever spiritual form best works for them. I've also felt inadequate at times when comparing my spirituality to other. In particular, to Evangelicals whose worship style always seemed so...demanding, yet rewarding, to it's participants. But I think it's a great personal growth when one begins to discover how to worship that allows them to be closest to God. And they should pursue that! Well, thanks for labeling me an optimist!
