WhyLots of people here like you, read your posts, get inspired. It is easy to slip into despair when bad things threaten. I’ve done it myself, many...

Recently, I spoke to a family friend, who is a Badger and Cardinal fan (he graduated from University of Wisconsin-Madison and Stanford Medical School).
We talked about some Big Ten football - how Michigan State and Wisconsin are cruising in their respective divisions (Legends and Leaders...
I thought Tuesday is even a sadder day than Monday.
Monday has already been a chore. It?s like lessons after lessons, work after work, and mindless thing after another mindless thing. I don?t know what?s next, other than maybe writing my pathetic situation to everyone.
My head is...
We are now up to Acts 21, where Paul gets into a riot at the Temple in Jerusalem and is rescued by Roman soldiers. And if anyone wants to write an action scene well, they could do worse than to study verses 27:39. Just a few short sentences, but even in translation they have lost none of their...
We can't stop autism genes from being identified, so that we can be extinct if people think having them is having too much of a risk to take...
But one thing we can do - now, while we are still alive, let's rediscover humanity...
And we now have a lack of it.
Because we choose to...
One of my favorite movies when I was growing up was the "Wizard of Oz". It was an annual routine in my family, get out the homemade popcorn (no microwaves in those days), gather around the old black and white TV set, and settle down for an evening of fun and fantasy. Once we got past the...
I do not belong to where I am today.
Singapore reminds me of Washington D.C - except that it's too uncomfortable to be considered as a 'home'. It can be quite intellectual for those who want to scratch beyond the surface, it can also be vibrant that is on par with the usual Asian cities. And...
I think poverty is the greatest deterrent to personal success. But after poverty, the biggest obstacle is the desire to have a coordinate effort for self-improvement in the Aspies.
With wealth, Bob Wright decided to try to cure his autistic grandchild. This is why we have (censored). What a...
I often meet with a co-worker from a different department at lunch and we share what is going on with our days. Recently she has been telling me about a new girl in her department and the issues others have been having with her. Now, keep in mind, I don't really know the girl, so I can't judge...
I have unrealistically high expectations of autistic people functioning in the world and with their family, society, etc.
I wish for all members to optimize their performance, regardless of their stims and mannerisms and whatever, just to do what they can do to the world.
Even my parents...
In my last post I wrote about a video my church group watched on David and Goliath. Now David and Goliath is one of the great underdog stories of all time. Here's a mighty warrior, pride of the Philistine army, felled by a stone slung by a kid. Ever since, it's been cited as proof that with...
Last night in "small group" we watched a video on David and Goliath (here we go again, killing in defense of God). Anyway, what was interesting is that the video's narrator mentioned that the Israelites did not have iron technology back in those days. This was no small thing. Iron was very...
I'm beginning to notice how overprotective and sugar-coated the world is today, or at least it is in the United States. Professional football has turned into a game of pansies trying as much as they can to not hurt opposing players ("Roughing the Quarterback") while wearing nearly three times as...
I have a proposal. Since it now appears that bullies in Michigan have license to bully as long as they can demonstrate that this bullying stems from deep moral or religious convictions, I suggest that should their victims demonstrate that they have suffered harm from this bullying that they or...
We had a guest speaker today in church who talked about a special mission to orphans. He showed a short video on how many children worldwide are orphans or in danger of becoming orphans, and then he left us with a challenge. He said there were 5,000 orphans in Michigan and 10,000 churches. We...
(1) Focus on ability to do what society wants from us
(2) Having the ability to remain sane enough to have a few thoughts of our own
(3) Persist in having these thoughts when conditions are against us
(4) Have the ability to transcend
Many of us will not realise this...
An unnamed person diagnosed with autism (also my personal friend) in Singapore commented that Singaporeans are complacent, and keep blaming others (NTs) for their misfortune.
If Singaporean parents migrate to other overseas countries for better autism services regardless of their child's...
And so, personally as an admin of an autism forum, I will open all my reasons of disagreeing with some members on having attitudes that is detrimental for the good of our forum.
In the past and presently, I keep a black list of members who are not allowed to join the forum, based on past and...
I had this debate with a pro-Establishment Facebook user, True Blue Singaporean: Has Singaporean universities admitted too few students?
Consider the facts:
In Hong Kong, one-third of the high school level students do not get into university. In Singapore, the rate is half (if we include...
This morning when I was driving to work I heard something on the radio that I just could not believe. The Michigan Legislature has just passed an anti-bullying law that allows for "moral and religious exemptions." In other words, if a bully can prove that his or her bullying was inspired by...
You can't restrain the truth...
What do censorship, Wikileaks and glasnost got to do in common?
They involve governments' choice to with-hold information from the rest of the world.
I do not believe in restraining the truth. This is why I refuse to write in my school blog, despite my...
