    I'm new to this community but at the get go I've noticed that many of the general public recognize no difference between the mentally ill and the mentally challenged.And that many stereo type the mentally challenged as morons.

    Hello

    They have come a long way from the Department Store Huffy. A quality bicycle is fitted to you much like a shoe and so lite weight one can lift it with one hand. But be prepared to spend at least 600 Bucks. With 40 miles per can of beans and the positive effects on the cardiovascular......it's...

    What's the most unsuitable job you've had?

    I pulled 12 hour shifts in a cold storage warehouse. The cold clammy sensation one experienced when sweating in the constant 28 degree temperature was bad....but it was actually the steel toed shoes that caused me to quit after a month. Damn how my feet hurt as I limped to the car.

    Developmentally disabled man kidnapped and tortured...livestreamed on facebook

    And it's sad how persons so young have sank so low. All are narcissistic, unfeeling ass holes driven by hate. Of the same mold as KKK members of by gone days. And proof positive that rednecks are created in all colors. Shame on them and shame on their parents and shame on a society who played...

    Hello

    Retired at 62 and I haven't thrown the leg over the bicycle in over 2 years due to the chores of homesteading out here in the boonies. Plus these roads are not good at all for road biking. No shoulders and to many blind curves with jacked up 4 wheeled drive trucks doing 60 mph. Just a bit to...

    Hello

    Old Aspies never die.....They just disappear into the wall paint. I'm 64 and have carried an affliction of extreme shyness all my life. I have been misunderstood as conceited, have been categorized as retarded, have been the victim of verbal bullying and in social circumstances have regularly...

    Is There Gold At The End Of A Rainbow?

    My first marriage lasted 23 years and ended when I was rejected for another. Seems the kids were keeping us together but once they were raised, we no longer had a mission in common. This heart of mine was broken and stepped upon, but I had always failed to give her the emotional support that she...

    Give meaning to your existence and keep going

    I am 64 and have always felt handicapped in the social area. Just carrying on a conversation, it was like I always drew a blank mentally. My grandmother once confided in me that as a young child, both sets of grandparents believed something to be wrong with me because of an extreme shyness...

    Give meaning to your existence and keep going

    I think of the Hindu tale of one knocking on the door of heaven and hearing the voice of God asking "Who goes there?". The only enlightened reply is,"It is you". I also think of Carl Sagan who said,"The Universe is all there is, there was, and all there ever will be. That we all are just the...

    Autism and Buddhism

    I am an atheist when it comes to the existance of a literal gaseous vertebrae in the sky. And I also feel with my feeling of repulsion for social situations and with organized religion being built upon a close knit mindset.....that my choice to reject a belief in God was my only option. And my...
