Dare To Care

Dare To Care

With heartache I read this:

'We are looking for a possible friend for a 15 year old boy with Asperger. He is currently doing his GCSC's and will be leaving school in July. He lives in ---------- and would like to have a friend of his age who likes football, the cinema and the gym.'

‎I can only imagine how this boy feels

Wanting friends around him

At least one 

One friend who can accept his special needs

A friend who is happy to spend time with him

A friend who can laugh at his silly jokes

A friend to share those thoughts and feelings that others may not comprehend

He is alone in his lonely world 

A world he cannot escape from

He needs an advert to find friends

I wonder if my youngest will be next

Will this world ever evolve?

Will society ever remove the blindfolds‎?

Ignorance is bliss

So they say

Surely not in this way

So if you read this please do share

Raise awareness 

Don't shrug your shoulders 

Dare to care.
