This is a helpful website.
Working with people with autism and their parents, the issues are very recognizable.
Surely, some of you will utilize this website.

This very much worth watching, entertaining and sharp.

The fall is so rich with abundant fruits and food that mother earth is giving us.
Do take time to walk and tread softly and with attention to her breathing. Do listen to the sounds of nature and find your feeling of gratitude.

A wonderful picture that captures one of those magical moments is seen on www.bouke.ca September 28

Relax.

Inspiration

Jack Layton's passing and our collective grief which I shared today at Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square reminded me of a verse I had come across a long time ago and which spoke so vividly to me at the time and still does.

I have used all my doubts as energy, and created with it
I have used all my pain as energy, and created with it
I have used all my anxiety as energy, and created with it
I plan to use my death as energy, and create with it
No matter what death has planned for me.
