About

Hi.. My Name is John.. I have been around for 63 years. Five years ago I was diagnosed as Autistic / Asperger’s..  This has given me a very different perspective on life.. I now understand ‘why’ so many things in my life where as  they were..  I think I understand what made me who I am now……..

This is my sharing.

Of how it is to be Older, Male,  living alone, who is ‘Autistic’..  A person who.s training in psychotherapy has made me even more different from the people surrounding me..

This is me ‘coming out’. Being open.. my childhood with a malignant narcissistic mother, with NO realisation.. Thinking it was ME – who was wrong, different.. Trying to tell social services of my concerns for my fathers life – when no-one listened. Not making it to the hospital before he died..

That phone call from the hospital – don’t bother now he’s dead!…..  

Not seeing my children for 20+ years.. Despite my huge desire to see them and my efforts to make contact..

It is me describing what I see through my window on life.  This is about my friends the people I see, those around me, friends and generally the amusing side of life..  The beauty of people and nature..

It is me reaching out to you. Looking for your perspective. looking to find a common ground where we can all meet……..

My intention is to make you think.. To present another perspective, that may challenge How you think.. To stimulate conversation. To remind us all of the beauty that surrounds us – lest we forget..
