1 " Having Asperger’s is like having an enhancer plugged into an outlet in our brains. Asperger’s is an accelerator, amplifying the perceptions that we have on the world and the ambiance around us. Like going to the store and buying a device to plug in or install on something in order to make it run faster, Asperger’s will deepen everything’s significance, causing us to take things to a more intense level. Those of us with Asperger’s need to take our time on certain things, which causes us difficulty in accomplishing simple tasks. We learn to diligently persevere and be more prudent and careful. "Juggling the Issues: Living with Asperger’s Syndrome is an anthology explaining these topics through the eyes of someone with Asperger’s. This is more than a researcher giving an outline of what we face and what we can do. Instead, this is one of those books told by a person who has Asperger’s and has dealt with certain difficulties in order to experience achievements over the past twenty years. I have personally overcome and am still overcoming a lot of the trials that come with having Asperger’s. "

I earned a degree in chemistry, juggle for elementary schools, play piano for seniors on Sunday mornings, and been mentoring children/teens from K-12 at Royal Rangers almost every week for six years and counting.

4 " I believe ALL of us has a certain quantity of talents. It's up to us to do something with them. Will we share them and multiply its effect, or will we just bury them out of cowardly fear of getting out in front of people? Many people might be missing out just because you aren't spending your talents wisely. "
5 " Behind the disability, we have a heart and a mind. "
6 " Like I said in previous videos, if I don't come forward exposing this stuff, then I'm no different than a bully; if I don't stand by the words I've written or said, then I'd be a hypocrite! "
7 " God, Help me to help the helpless when I feel helpless to help them! "
