life's glimmers

If you've followed me on social media you might know that I recently realized I'm autistic. Official diagnosis? No, but the signs just can't be ignored after 30+ years. Unmasking and learning more about autism and myself is exhausting and difficult, but there's one thing I learned about and found a lot of joy in and that's autistic glimmers. Hearing so much about triggers, it was refreshing to learn about the opposite, these little things that calm and mesmerize, that ground me to the world and at the same time spark a little magic. So that's what I'd like to fill this space with, things that let my mind quiet and my breath steady, and maybe you'll find a glimmer here too 🖤
