NOT OTHERWISE DEFINED

BY PETE ROSCH
I am not really defined by my OCD, but some days it feels like I am. It dictates my behavior every minute of every day. It is perpetually in doubt as to whether I am doing things myself, or because I’m compelled. Meaningful moments outside of spelling are few and far between. Every moment is permanently possessed by compulsions. But I am not my OCD. Nor am I defined by my diagnosis of autism. I am Peter Rosch, fried food aficionado, reader of poetry, lover of music, and writer of this blog.

Dance Thoughts

On Saturday night we went to the annual M2H dance. It was awesome.  The costumes people had on were hilarious. I believe the eighties age called to Judy, as she looked at home in her leg warmers. 


Every time there is a super fun M2H event, I think about life before and after spelling. It’s like a study in contrasts. To be able to talk and to have friends, to have parties and the opportunity to learn…these are things I’ll never take for granted. It sometimes feels like that was a different lifetime that happened to a different Pete, all those years in silence.  I believe that even when I am old, I won’t take the wonderful things in life for granted. After so many years without, no one is more grateful than me to get. 

So yeah, the dance rocked. And the happiness will last a long time.
