When your brain receives a stimulus, it is automatically transmitted down a specific pathway that has... |

| All I know is my own experience, and I been told that whenever I've had to go under or be on pain medication (wisdom teeth, etc.), it affects me a lot more than it does my NT siblings. |

| People, usually my wife, complain I walk too fast. If I try to walk her speed, I find it maddeningly slow. Sometimes, I walk backward just to approach her speed. +1 That always happens to me! If I'm walking/hiking with other people, they complain I'm going to fast, but I also find it maddeningly sl... |

No matter what side of the aisle you're on, and even if plans aren't followed through, isn't is good that the President is talking about it?
You know, just to generate more dialogue and awareness. |

| Absolutely, have that conversation right away--your friend's engagement is the perfect opportunity to bring it up. Obviously I can't know what your BF is planning, but keep in mind the things you've described don't automatically mean he's making plans. When friends of mine decided to get married, I... |

| I read this book called Magna Sententia , and the authors talk about forgiveness as "letting go of yesterday so that you can have today," meaning that forgiveness should be more "victim-oriented." They think forgiveness is where you "let go" of the bad things people have done to you (not "forget") s... |
