          "almost everyone has something they love" That's the best way of describing particulars with autism that I've ever heard. Even makes autism sound like it sound incredibly inclusive.

          We all feel safer & more accepted when we are around people like ourselves. I wish humans would think about this when they come across someone they view as different. We would definitely be much nicer to each other.

          You have a brilliant smile, Renee. To be aware of your passions is a gift that many search their whole lives for. How fortunate you are! By the way, my favorite movie is titled “What Dreams May Come”. I hope you get a chance to watch it one day, if you haven’t already. 🙏
