An autistic person is a person that is like a unique confection,

When placed on the tongue, it elicits a strong response to some flavor that you might be averse to,

But as that initial response dissipates, underneath there is a curious combination of flavors that you hadn’t considered before, and you’re not so sure how you feel about,

And if you continue to feel about it, all the flavors dissolve into the honey of the center. The deepest delicatest honiest of honey.

The place where we all want to be met.

An autistic person is a person that is like a unique confection: challenging at first, but worth the effort.

More than worth the effort.
