FE2LA's 7th Anniversary "Day Of Discovery"

Hi, all. E2LA here. Well, here we are. Another March 13th, and the 7th anniversary of something special for me. Before I begin, please note that while I've told this story to many people, it's also for the benefit of those who are new to me.

On this day in 2014, my diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome was confirmed in my screening, thus giving myself a sense of closure about those doubts I had about it that had lingered for so long with me. I've called this day "My Day of Discovery" to honor this.

Seven years, wow. I should tell everyone where I came from before this day. I had my doubts, sometimes I'd feel a bit depressed about the future, other times I'd easily get jealous. Well, not anymore. I'm now a happier and clear person, and, yes, I know about all the challenges the pandemic has given me, and all of us, but I don't want to change myself in spite of what is going on right now. I will NEVER stop being a beacon of positivity, because that is what the world needs at this moment.

Also, I may have had my share of heartbreak, betrayal, but I keep pressing on. I've been compared to bad people, but those guys are NOT representative of myself as a person. The world may sometimes be cruel, but I will NEVER give up, either.

What else? If you know me well enough, you will notice that I am a very eclectic person in what he likes. That's something I can take a lot of pride in, because without all those things I like, I'd be an insular person.

That brings me to all of you. Thank you, to you, all of my friends for being there for me. The way I see it, my journey is NOT over. You are, what makes me an amazing person, and I am grateful for that.

And so, I end this message with a toast. Cheers! :D

Thank you for your positivity! I'm just a little over a year into this leg of my journey but it's always nice to see others persevere and push forward.
