That's how my mind works.

Oh, wow.

That Was Us
Beth Closes The Ballet Studio | "The Music and the Mirror" (514)

Yes.

That Was Us

That's so interesting.

So when she saw the format of the flashbacks, she was able to really tell me as a mother, when you're always trying to figure out what's going on on the inside, she said, this is how my mind works.

It was one of the biggest autism parenting moments I've had.

That Was Us

And I just wanted people that dealing with this thing called the Gestalt language processor, which is a part of some with autism, that's a little bit underserved and under discovered.

It really gave me pause to push and talk about this more because the show so beautifully shows life the way many of us think, but for a person with autism was to really access real feelings.

I don't know how she had this understanding, but that is in fact exactly what has happened.

That Was Us
Beth Closes The Ballet Studio | "The Music and the Mirror" (514)

Yes, indeed I am.

That Was Us
Beth Closes The Ballet Studio | "The Music and the Mirror" (514)

Yes, I feel that on all different levels, there are things going on universally and cosmically and things that I cannot understand in my little human mind that are bigger than what I know.

That Was Us
Beth Closes The Ballet Studio | "The Music and the Mirror" (514)

And I believe all of it.

That Was Us
