I find it worth noting how differently we all process things even though we are all on the spectrum.

Like for me, I process historical details like Buddha lived around 2600 years ago, was allegedly the son of royalty and left his family for monastic life after seeing how things were outside his sheltered existence. People back then knew nothing of germs, viruses (or virii...I ponder this too. lol) then I am on to DNA. From DNA I jump to how easy it is to make pronouncements like say the Dalai Llama does...about giving up all expectations to be happy, when you are hanging out at the Ritz Carlton with Richard Gere and all of your needs are taken care of...so you have no day to day stress other than wanting to get back to Tibet, where you have really never lived....and on and on I spin...

When really, all that is meant is do your best with what you have.

I am sooo too literal.

with myself.
