Perceptions, people.

Don’t even think of responding until you have read the bottom line. It was created by someone with Asperger Syndrome and is, in its own way, incredibly brilliant.

I’m horrible
So don’t try to convince me that
I have real qualities
Because at the end of the day
I hate myself in every single way
And I’m not going to lie to myself by saying
There is value in me that matters
Every day I will remind myself
That I am an ugly worthless terrible person
And nothing you say will make me believe
I can give and receive love
Because no matter what
I am too awful to be loved
And I am in no position to believe that
Lovability does exist within me
Because whenever I look in the mirror I always think
Am I as vile as people say?



Now read the whole thing from the bottom line up.

I'm pretty sure I've more than exceeded my blog quota for the day and promise to shut up for a while.

Well, maybe coffee later. And to delete any comments which tell me to cheer up, because the commenter didn't read the bottom line laugh

Some of you probably already saw this as a beauty one, it is doing the rounds. Huh, we're all beautiful. I fiddled. dunno
Biff, I don't know whether to congratulate you or try and comfort you. You poor thing, I'm so pleased for you. thumbs down thumbs up confused

@ Elegsabiff - You're obviously in two minds about your self worth, Girl...... laugh rolling on the floor laughing

Ya gonna need that rocking chair IMO..... wink


.... grin hug wine
I prefer the bottom up because its the truth...no matter what people think we know ourselves best.....teddybear
When “I” read it backwards,

“?yas elpoep sa eliv sa I mA”

and so on. I see a subliminal message from a lady warning me, “If you write another slapstick blog, I’ll bonk you on the head.” doh
I refuse! I hate reading.. snooty
Tough crowd. roll eyes

I'll have you know the original of this, although the author's name had not yet been told to us, is being treated as absolute genius and I did think it was a bit brilliant myself when I read it - like turning life upside down and looking at it again in a different light. dunno

But here on CS even though it is in italics it's assumed Biff wrote it and is having a bit of a meltdown I shall have to edit and make it clear it is Someone Else's Writing and therefore Safe To Appreciate roll eyes

Philistines mumbling
I just love you, Biff. teddybear
I thought you had made it clear it wasn't written by you originally? dunno
Yeah, I thought the same thing. When the author tells you to read the WHOLE THING...
I love you too GT, why are we hugging so tightly this particular time? laugh
Because you make me laugh and I am grateful for it applause
Molly, I simply am not that brilliant. I've now made it clearer that it was Someone Else and can be appreciated laugh
Oh X everyone always wants everyone to read the whole blog rolling on the floor laughing
GT I am thrilled beyond measure to be your jester and hope you are posting something so I can have a good giggle too because i MISS you

Enough hugging - let's dance!
Cha cha cha dancing
I once read an article in Psychology Today entitled "From Empathy To Autism".

I felt really quite cross at the article as it was propagating a popular misunderstanding of people with autistic spectrum traits.

I hope people will start to realise that a different perspective is not the same as non-existence.

This poem is utter genius on more that one level.
Bravo. This was good

That's a really clever use of words to show both sides of the self-image coin; like it! wine
I think it is brilliant Biff they way the author wrote it, thanks for sharing.
yes you are.smitten

Happy New year. !hug wine
Ah, yes, Biff---the higher regions of the so called Autistic Spectrum. Your surgeon, tax consultant, electrician, patent attorney, child psychiatrist, ---it's a long and surprising list.
Are you-are you sure?
