When I grew up, I have been greatly inspired by so many role models that shaped my mind. Mozart, Galileo, Einstein, Mandela, Obama, Temple Grandin, Bob Marley and other passionate well known people. We have shaped the world today by brilliant and bright minded people. I am one scientist, a postgraduate student in environmental management enjoying making the world to be more sustainable, and work together as in one globe sharing our problems and inspire children about the enjoyment of life.
When I was a young boy, I spent so much time on imagining things. I set up a mini city out of legos pretending in reality with toy cars. I also drew a lot of imaginative environments. I rarely spend time outside my world of imagination. This greatly reflects on who I am today. I love thinking, visually and express them towards to a sustainable world. I draw, write and express about globalisation of all world's problems to be solved. During high school and early university years, I struggled in writing because of my influence from hearing loss, which that slowed down my communication skills when I grew up.
Writing are best expressions for me today where I learned that my friends and other bloggers can read helps themselves to be inspired and learn new things. In reality, when communicating with my family and friends it can be difficult at times. My mind, in a very different pattern is actually reflects on their confusion and misinterpretation. I believe there are two realities in the world, upon these reflections:
1. Socially inept world with no intelligence
2. Intelligent world with no social skills
We all cannot balance these two things together, because if we focus on creation and support there will be no social pattern. However, we can alleviate the problems of miscommunication and misinterpretation by mentoring. Mentoring is a great way for myself to learn social skills through friends. I could not live with the world without family and friends. Everyone, no matter if they have ASD or not. We are all require learning skills, at stages through our lives. I find myself in more intelligent and talented world. This is what I am being told by lot of people, including strangers. My quirks can be confusing to the non ASD minds, because I express myself differently to a same point.
I have come across to a lot of banters and denials from people I met in my life of why I actually require effective social skills to be employed and making friends. It is extremely unfair for a person, with talents and intelligence to be left out of the opportunities. The world before disabilities and diversity awareness from the mid 1990's, there were so many famous people who created the world we have today.
Emerson, Derain [the painter], Degas [the painter], Caravaggio [the
painter], Charles Dickens, most of the Beatles, Beethoven, Canova,
Thomas Carlyle, Henri Cross, Henri Corbin, Leonardo da Vinci, Max Ernst,
Escher, Gauss, Lennart Green [the magician on this site], William
Hazlitt, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Victor Hugo, Jim Carrey, Paul Kammerer,
Paul Klee, Krishnamurti, Ernst Mach, Millais, Modigliani, Robert Monroe,
Edvard Munch, Nietzsche, Max Planck, Henri Poincare, Joseph Priestley,
Rubens, John Ruskin, Saint Saens, Sting, Tchaikovsky, Thoreau, W B Yeats......and many more who you may think who have done great things are far more likely have ASD.
Famously, Einstein, Tesla and Mozart also have ASD if they are diagnosed today. So, in today's world. Bill Gates, Temple Grandin and Jim Carrey are current idols also have ASD. They are inspiring people, but at the same time is socially accepted because their gifts is rewarding the world in a better place. Bill Gates gave you computers.
I feel like I am in a same situation. Whether I am going through young age of life working on the pathway where I seek opportunities for my enjoy inspiring more people about environment and sustainability. I am really hopeful I have come across to more acceptance that will make my world go around. For myself, being happy, want to set an example to inspire the reality of my life with uniqueness inspire younger generations. I want to live in a sustainable world, help and support sustainable development initiatives, get married and have a family of my own and that. These are my values, reflects on my positive energy and excitement to what I am enjoying myself intelligently.
