Shyness

As long as i can remember i have always been shy or i should say uncomfortable with people maybe large groups of people. I remember going to a basketball camp and being really afraid of doing it or something new.

Autism

I saw this parker spitzer piece on autism recently and in the program they revealed the stat that about one in every one hundred and ten kids are diagnosed with autism. There was a man who founded some group about vacination warning on autism and a father of an autistic child. The problem in this situation is that autism and every other disease is not an isolated "thing." Things are always changing and to diagnose someone with autism or any disease is to identify them with the disease. Identity as we know comes from the latin idendum or to make the same. People want an indenity and want to make themselves the same with something. The more identities the better. But true zen is no zen as we know. How can i serve a situation even with these believes, maybe putting them aside for helping people. I have believes and am analytical but am willing to throw all of it away for happiness and to serve.
