An alternative view of asperger’s

FOR HIRE – One bubble which is big enough for one person and a confused, fearful and perhaps blinkered view of the world and everybody in it.

Colour – Transparent.

Such an advertisement seems strange but the idealogy behind the notion of having your own space could be perfect.

Life can get pretty tough sometimes. For those moments, having a bubble to climb into for a bit of peace and quiet on your own may be the best way of cleansing the mind.

Pretty soon after having a good think though, you would get pretty bored though wouldn’t you?

Get your own bubble today!

Surely the time would come to enter life with all of your family and loved ones again? Catch up with whatever you had missed as you were taking a break?

Think about this offer of something that could give you a time to be alone for a while.

Then, consider how some people have no choice to make. The bubble is something which will not go away, no matter how hard they want it to.

It just won’t pop. IT WON’T GO AWAY!

Being able to switch off from the thoughts and feelings of others can be a great release but it’s also pretty isolating.

There is a sense of sadness and annoyance in living in a world which is different to your own, and everybody elses too. Sure, everything looks the same and though you can’t see the divide between ‘normality’ and difference, there is a shield.

It’s transparent though, which is why you can’t see it.

Imagine a world where your thoughts are different from those of everybody else and as for what you look at, things are exactly the same as usual but there are minute details which make them look different?

One subject rules your mind and your thoughts. This matters more than anything else, any other form of conversation seems to only link to what is the main talking point.

Like tasting the hottest chilli, it’s burning on your lips and the desire to extinguish the taste is too tempting.

Personally, sport has this effect on life but this is just one way of being different.

When trying to fit in a world that isn’t your own, building a facade to try and be like everybody else isn’t easy.

In bubbles, it’s fine to do what you want and say what you want. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case as those outside of this little world cannot always comprehend why life is so different.

Like a robot, this brain is wired to work in a certain way.

Just, a few connections haven’t gone together in ways that they should and the electricity hasn’t flowed properly.

When living by yourself, this problem doesn’t matter too much. When with others, the wires fuse and sparks ignite to make an imagination break into a mix of fire and melting parts.

On rare occasions, short circuiting can lead to a complete breakdown in communication.

Welcome to a life of difference. Say hello and welcome the next person that you see, rolling around in their unburstable life.
