MATTER OVER MIND

BY JULIAN MUNOZ

My name is Julian Munoz, and I am sane. Why I am starting with that declaration: I have that kind of sense that tells me that people tend to equate autism with insanity. Autism affects my ability to control my body with my mind. The thinking part of my mind works perfectly. Unfortunately, that thinking part is not in control. We, the nonspeaking, get lumped in with the insane too often. Our outward appearance throws people. Were they to spend time with us, they would realize we are rational. What rationally has me writing this blog is the desire to set people straight.

Today we know that apparently people read our blogs. I find that very thrilling. Through all those years of silence, my hope was to make people hear me: wanting to feel an open voice for a voice I believed I’d never have. So may all those people hear us speaking? There totally appears to be an actual audience for us. To me this feels miraculous. Year after year with no one hearing my thoughts, and now hundreds of people hearing them. To be able to share my thoughts is a gift that is so huge that, ironically, there are no words. We are finally being seen. I am, in my mind, walking the red carpet to the Oscars or something. It’s like coming to truly exist after thirty years of being in limbo.

I laughed at the thought that you feel like you're walking down a red carpet. But then I said to myself that you actually deserve it because you are A TRUE STAR.
Keep on writing, Julian, and expressing yourself, I assure you I'll be following you, my dear nephew! You have a brilliant mind!

Hi Gugy. I love that you have this voice to be seen now! I cant wait to hear more about your thoughts. You have always been a mystery box to me that finally seems to be opening. Please keep telling us all the things you like and dislike. Do you like that I call you Gugy? Do you like the scratches and tickles? Do you like listening to music or audiobooks? What about swimming, walking or biking? There are so many things that you can tell us now that I cant wait to find out about

Felipe I want to show parts of me to the world. Yes, you can call me Gugy. Tickles are fun. Music is better. Walking is my favorite. I love you Felipe. Julian
