When the world was telling me it was all my fault I refused to believe them.

While I’ve not personally experienced autism, when I replace the word “autism” with that thing in my life that I want to control (and there’s been a few things) I too can be free to release and experience freedom. You are a caring and insightful mom and Jaison is so fortunate to have you.

Equally beautiful to meet you sharmonyrose, what was felt here is a living testimonial that true connection bridges the physical and the diagnosis of autism. Thank you, the support is beautifully felt.

It is a topic very close to my heart. I know a couple of dear autistic children, and a lot more with Asperger’s syndrome (a mild version). They are often the most loving, forgiving an accepting children of all.

Yes Sharon I thought it was amazing. What a beautiful song he wrote! I also work with adults with Autism – I don’t think I have seen anything done like this before. X

Looks like we came to Earth for similar purposes and our son’s are here to encourage us deeper into the lessons, farther into the journey to see the Heart of Life.
Yes!!! The way you are describing your interactions with your son. Speaking from your heart with deep respect for his choices, I honor that.
Loved when you said, “whether connection is reflected back in the way we expect or not.” Yes!!!
If we can carry this type of connection that is not dependent on response that is one of the great gifts our sons with autistic bodies give us.
That you listen so intimately to what your son is here to share with you, and the depth of love and honor you give him is evident in your words.
So very pleased to meet you!

I have a 12 year old son in the autism spectrum, and I have found that maintaining a connection with myself, simply expressing the innate intimacy that feels natural to me with him in deep respect and understanding of his choices, without being compromised by the diagnosis, has deepened our relationship. Every day and every learning is another opportunity to be more present with myself and with each other, it is important to be real and sometimes life does feel vulnerable and it is important to allow myself to feel that and to express it honestly. Whether connection is reflected back in the way we expect it to be or not, it is there–felt–between human beings and in knowing this is so beautifully amazing.
