This morning, a young autistic man and I will walk the mountain side trail together. I do not know him well but once a week we spend a few hours in each other's company, rain or shine. He seems to enjoy our excursions which he communicates to me with his 'thumbs up' gesture. We often include Gulliver on these walks and the three of us wander along each enjoying the outing at our own pace. My experience, his experience, and the dog's experience are all occurring in the same location at the same time. However, each of us processes it uniquely, with no one way having more value than the others. Each one of us is having our own perfect morning together!
