Happy New Year! Resolution One: Help a family dealing with Autism. Feel good
- Posted on 01.01.09
Thank You and Happy Holidays to you all. You are a crazy, wonderful, caring, young, and Causefull group. Never forget one of the greatest needs of the human condition is human connection. We all are longing for that connection to something bigger.
If there is no connection there is no need to fight for Human Rights, Animals, Health, Community, Children, food safety, environment, organ donors, self esteem,veterans, peace, or clean water.
You have all made yourself very visible and we have connected as cyberspace friends. It is important to keep continuity and back stories going. Build the community and they will come should be your mantra. Lose the spirit of the community and we lose the world.
I wish all the best for 2009. Thank you again for changing the world of one father dealing with Autism. I have no guide book and no respite you offer hope. You are my connection to the outside world. Live the cause. Cause to live. Join Causecast today.

What can you do today...
If you are a parent... Love your child unconditionally. Do not let your child feel they are any less because they cannot communicate the way we do or look after themselves. Do not forget to look after yourself and your significant other. ( If you don't have one find one...There is someone out there for everyone. You deserved to be loved also). Join a church. Speak to your friends. Keep up the good fight.
If you are Friend... If you have resources please consider supporting Generation Rescue as they move the agenda towards services and support programs. If you do not have financial resources provide respite services... Babysit, go with a parent to the grocery store, or running errands. Be there to listen.
If you are in the medical community it is time to wake up and do something...
If you are in the insurance industry it is time to make the people responsible pay...
