Just saw the movie “The reason I jump” on CineMember.
I am moved and I’ve become wiser. This is a must see for everyone!

"There ought to be others left behind who in some way or the other will continue with what he has done. And take up at least for a while or to some extent and degree, the torch which he has carried. And then, perhaps, perhaps, this world will not be left in the darkness of darkness, but light will continue. Light will persevere. And ultimately life, and light, and love will prevail." - 1986, #StephanAHoeller

[staying overnight with my parents i read two books. coming home i read a weightier, more depressing book over a couple of nights. im reading one of the six books i bought charity shopping while away, but its not quite to my taste so im not speeding through it ]
[ive got a copy of #theReasonIJump on the way, and would rather be going on with that. i only have an ebook of #unmaskingAutism so im finding it hard to get back to it. the sensory experience of physical books, am i right ]

Thanks to @Autism for inviting me to see #TheReasonIJump at @CentralPictureH last night. 2nd time watching it and so amazingly powerful and a must see for everyone. Brilliant work all round with incredible immersive sound design from Nick Ryan.
