April is Autism Awarness Month
© Copyright Ada Kanu 2013
This past summer, I spent some time getting to know my two cousins who both suffer from autism, my older cousin who’s now 19 is like every other 19-year old out there, the path to recovery has not always been easy, I took for granted what my children’s ability to communicate and interact with others. My aunt would spend hours marveling that my Henry could say so many words, and over time and researching the topic, have come to understand why.
In honor of the month, I dedicate today’s post to my cousin’s Joe and Emmanuel, my Aunt Ellen, and to all who deal with this disability, but don’t let it get them down.

Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won’t stay there.
~ Clarence W. Hall
It is the hour to rend thy chains,
The blossom time of souls.
~ Katherine Lee Bates
Could life so end, half told; its school so fail?
Soul, soul, there is a sequel to thy tale!
~ Robert Mowry Bell
Easter is the demonstration of God that life is essentially spiritual and timeless.
~ Charles M. Crowe
On Easter Day the veil between time and eternity thins to gossamer.
~ Douglas Horton
Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life.
~ S.D. Gordon
Where man sees but withered leaves, God sees sweet flowers growing.
~ Albert Laighton
He takes men out of time and makes them feel eternity.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
For I remember it is Easter morn,
And life and love and peace are all new born.
~ Alice Freeman Palmer
Thou art the Sun of other days.
They shine by giving back the rays.
~John Keble, The Christian Year: Easter Days
We live and die; Christ died and lived!
~ John Stott
Those have a short Lent, who owe money to be paid at Easter.
~ Benjamin Franklin
The story of Easter is the story of God’s wonderful window of divine surprise.
~ Carl Knudsen
Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time.
~ Martin Luther
Well pleaseth me the sweet time of Easter
That maketh the leaf and the flower come out.
~ Bertran de Born
Easter tells us that life is to be interpreted not simply in terms of things but in terms of ideals.
~ Charles M. Crowe
A picture may express a thousand words, but accompanied by just the right touch of penned thoughts, your picture blooms into a story all on its own.
