There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. Proverbs 14:12

I have an appointment coming up and I had to check when it is. I’ve got a few days but I’m already planning out that day. What time I’ll have to leave to get there on time. I remind myself what floor to go to when I arrive. I know I’ll be seeing at least two people. Should I take the highway or the side roads. I’ve got three options to get there, one I certainly don’t want to take. That route causes too much stress even if it’s a shorter time frame. Then again, that shorter trip is based on current traffic conditions and it doesn’t account for lights. The third option is best for gas usage but what will the highway look like at that time of morning on that day?

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world.

About halfway through lunch, he suddenly got quiet. He toyed with his food like he had no interest in it at all. Sometimes he looked at it like he wasn’t sure why he ordered it in the first place.

The issue of pants or no pants is up to the creative person. The individual neurodivergent has to decide for themselves what works best. This may take a lot of trial and error and having to accept that it won’t be the same all the time.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that they may benefit those who listen. Ephesians 4:29

It’s a simple question with a lot to unpack. The first thing to consider is what you think of as defective?

For countless people with ADHD, feeling defective is a way of life. It’s a part of who we are. When our mood is good, we feel special and sometimes superior in some aspects. We can hyper-focus like crazy or we can tackle multiple projects at the same time. We call these our super powers. To the outside world, they might as well be powers bestowed from the heavens.

After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord made him prosperous again and gave him twice as much as he had before. Job 42:10
