Prismatic Greys and Introverted Projections


Book Description

In your hand is a little piece of my mind, stitched together within the confines of a fragile little book (that is at your mercy, I might add.) So please, be gentle with this representation of my thoughts; I’ve been rough enough on my mind already. I would like to tell you more about myself, but I won’t. I feel that giving you insight to my character may influence your interpretations on the words within. I understand that you may or may not perceive the world in the same way as I, and that is perfectly acceptable. I think. I also thought about organizing the poems into categories, like religion, abuse, pop culture, love, political, etcetera, but opted against. Again, I don’t want to influence your perceptions on these works in any way. I like it when people think beyond the surface, in most cases. Why? The answer is simple: because if something dark and twisted is viewed in these poems, there is no one to blame but your dirty little self. (Or your bright and beautiful self, if you’re one of them “rainbows and sunshine” types.) There is also no conscious decision to put these in any order. Perhaps on some level, I set a pattern, I just don’t care to look. I have been told I’m somewhat emotional by many people in my life, so I’ll just stick to that theme. Well, enough from me, as I have said enough already; you’re going to get enough of me within the pages inside...or you’ve already had enough, if you’re one of those who read IN a book before you read the back of one. (Which makes more sense to me, kind of.) Enjoy, or not. I’m here.

Virtual Autism


Book Description

I remember that quote a classmate told me during a lunch out with my class, in 20001. I wished I’ve token that more seriously. 16 years later, I am unable to sleep due to an IBS-flare up and are browsing pictures of the building the orphanage I lived on were housed and did make an interesting finding that the local authority for social services are now located there. I liked their Facebook page and then fallen into sleep. 16 hours later, A post from that facebook page appeared in my Facebook feed, although I couldn’t read Romanian at all, I realized it was about something really exciting - “Virtual Autism”. I clicked on it and tried to interpreted the page in Romanian and believed it was about a study that found out that high usage of computers, tablets, television watching was linked with autism. And I learnt i was right when I searched for “Virtual Autism”. The study found out that children who did no have their screen had their autism symptoms improved (M. D, 2017). I was astonished by this and got some clues from what I have documented in my autobiography “I am defying the Gravity” (2017).
