Story of My Life Part 1 – October 4, 2018
I have autism. That means I might look different to most people. Not so easy to be like me. Too hard to do most everything.
I really value my life, but I wish this wasn’t so stupid. It is stupid to be born without so many things that I supposed to be able to do. Things like talking to others so difficult to me. Like for others to know I am doing my best.
So stupid to not really have purpose in this life. I can’t do things I want to because my autism is in control. My autism is stupidest. It rules my every thought and motion. Never makes sense. No matter I eager to do things, I real mad I can’t stop my autism. Not so sure most people live not able to start making themselves do things like I live. Most really not like me at all.
Sometimes I too upset about stupid autism, I not like it. I not like thinking about not having autism because that is not even possible I don’t think. So today I can try to not have autism, not really true though.
We are all parts of one body, we have the same Spirit, and we have all been called to the same glorious future. Ephesians 4:4
Jake has given me permission to share his story and our conversations. He continually expresses his desire to “find purpose” to his life…I hope his willingness to share will help others learn about this misunderstood condition known as “autism” that has so much to teach us all.
This is very inspirational, keep it up!
Jake you very much inspire me and I am very interested in learning about autism from you so I can better understand the little children I have in my class that have been diagnosed with autism. Thank you for sharing.
