(no subject)
Most of you proably don't see the need for this, and of course, there really isn't. But I feel the need to.
My LJ seems to be a bit of a drama-llama generator as of late (read: the last 6 months). It seems my self-discovery is not welcome by all. Being told that I'm letting my identity be all about being autistic is simply not true (as I see it). I admit that I've been blogging lots about it, but having a person who's been on my f-list for three months say that's all I blog about, has either not read my blog or... is just too blind to see the other posts. Those who have followed me for some time will realize that what I write about changes depending on my obsessions. It's been knitting, photograhy, stuffies. I don't see why autism is something else, something different.
We all writ about what we find important/funny/interesting at the moment of writing. To me, in these last few months, it's been AS. Being on my own has left me time to think about how I define and perceive the world. It has also made it very necessary to do so because I've had to do things for myself. Therefore, it's been a matter of interest on my part. Anyone who doesn't like it can either stop reading or simply take me off their f-list.
I'm writing here to get comments, of course, but forcing me to write about something, or not write about it, will not work. I can't believe I'm once more "forced" to write posts like this, defending what I write about :(
