I continue to be amazed by Autistic people. I am humbled and empowered by these special people and their countless gifts. These recent videos I saw featured on various news outlets and re-posted them on Facebook. Be inspired as I have with these amazing people.

Autistic teen who found an inner voice through writing. Be sure to watch the 20/20 video piece about her. Truly amazing.

My hero Dr. Temple Grandin is literally the voice of Autism. Thanks to her we know more of this baffling disability. Rent her video which won 7 awards (Emmy's and Golden Globes) to learn about her struggles in a time where Autism was an unknown word. Be inspired with her Ted Conference presentation about tapping into all kinds of minds and read her many books that offer all of us perspectives in what oftentimes seems unknown territories.
