On Sunday evening I was very
privileged to be invited to an awards ceremony that was being held by a local
autism support group called Spectrum https://www.facebook.com/events/1120527107987090/
when I entered the venue I was so taken back by the amount of people that were
in attendance and as the evening progressed you could feel the whole room was
filled with so much love. Awards were given to various individuals who had reached
milestones in their life such as overcoming bullying being really good at
football, art or by being an amazing person. There were singers performing such
as the Scott James https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGCrzmJfwcE
a young man singing O sole mio, another young man playing the piano and a young
man doing stand-up comedy, all very inspirational.
It was a very moving experience and I began to
think about why the big organisations don’t do things like this. It also hit me
that this amazing group was like an underground movement and why had I not
experienced anything like this before, so many questions. Then I thought is
this how all projects start and then as they grow and grow into major entities
does the love just dilute like water being added to concentrated squash. Is the
future at the hands of the small groups whose love never dilutes?
