Enthusiast

I had trouble trying to think of what to do my blog on because I didn't want to do anything ordinary. Typically I like to write in a satirical fashion; I like to poke fun at anything just to raise questions. However, I know that people are easily offended when you make jokes about something that is extremely important to them. As a way to avoid getting anyone upset, my original idea to joke about things that are going on in the world and in the popular media came to a crashing halt.

So where to go from here?

Well, as much as I don't like to admit it, I really am passionate about very little in life. However, the one thing that I can say I have become passionate for in the past year is autism. About a year ago I began working for a large organization that aids children and adults with developmental disabilities. I specifically work with young children in an early intervention therapy program. I think that my blog will be centered around this...possibly as a way to inform people about the issues surrounding autism, but also as a way to write down some of my experiences that I have had working with these amazing kids.

I think that the audience to a blog like this would be anyone who has had first hand experience with dealing with autism...maybe a child, a sibling,etc. However, I would really like to create a blog to capture a different audience of those who should become aware of the issues, so they can open their eyes to something new.
