Different, Not Less

Write It

Every mind is like a sky,
Filled with stars we can't deny.
Some shine softly, some shine bright,
Each one glowing with its own light.

Some speak loudly, some stay still,
Some climb mountains with quiet will.
Some find comfort in routine each day,
Some see the world a different way.

Kindness opens every door.
Listening helps us understand more.
Acceptance lets each person grow,
Into the wonderful self they know.

You do not need to hide your heart,
Or change yourself to play a part.
Your dreams, your voice, your unique view
Bring something beautiful and true.

Together we can build a place
Where every life is filled with grace.
A world that says, both loud and clear:
"You belong. We're glad you're here."

For being different is not a flaw.
It's another way the world inspires awe.
May love, respect, and hope increase—
So every autistic person lives in peace.
