Life in an alternate universe

Daily writing prompt
Describe your life in an alternate universe.
View all responses

Well I recently started to wonder how life would be if I was ‘normal’ instead of having Asperger’s and when I noticed this question I felt like I had to write something here after so many days with no post because life had been too much for this and my novel Beyond love existence so I am sorry I disappeared and I will try to be here more once again. So to answer the question on life then I feel like my life in an alternate universe could mean 2 different lives. 1. where I am normal and 2. where some physical injury had ruined my life. I am not pointing fingers at anyone, just feel that there are 3 types of lives, 1. normal ones, 2. physical injury preventing 100% like a broken back or a lost leg or 3. psychically like my Asperger’s or Bipolar.

To answer the main question then I think that my life in alternate universe would mean I had lost a leg at childbirth meaning I would still have problems being perfectly normal so I do not think I would still get bullied and such but because I didn’t have Asperger’s I would maybe have better luck understand people around me and that way not hurt people around me, which I feel I do a bit often. Hopefully I would also make me stronger to fight for things and maybe help people better. If I was not as good with computers as now then maybe I would be better at being a kindergarten teacher even it might be a bit weird to an one legged teacher but at least the kids would have lots to ask about. Otherwise since I would no longer be having motion sickness I could maybe be a sailor or roller coaster care taker since water is one of my favorite things or at least I used to be a sea turtle in my baby years. I also love eating fish now so maybe my food would be more plant based since I do not mind vegan food just not always the best to eat a good salad. I wonder if I would had more dates and such in the alternate universe since I am happy for what I have experienced in this life but maybe more things could have happened.

Retirement

Posted on by JTCHlife

How do you want to retire?

Well my work life is a bit special since because of my Asperger’s I am hired in something the Danish government calls FLEX job meaning different things like fx I work less than normal people but still get paid the same since my workplace gets the some of the money from the government since it is better for me and the government that I work instead of being unemployed. One of the ‘bad’ things is that once I reach the retirement age of people here, at the moment 70 years old, I will not get my special help anymore and I will work on normal terms if I want to do more. This means workplaces will often fire people when they reach that age. This makes me think that I will just leave the workforce when that happens unless my job offers some good way of me to continue and that I like the place. If it is the place I am now, then I will buy a big cake for the company and celebrate my retirement with them and my family, once the celebration is over then unless I am sick or something that prevents me from being at full speed I will go on a holiday to some nice country.

My tagline

Posted on by JTCHlife

If humans had taglines, what would yours be?

“The climbing movie watching guy with Asperger’s” is what I feel my tagline would be since I feel my mix of climbing and being outdoors while also going crazy with movies makes me a fun mix plus as you know I have Asperger’s which is why I am adding that as well… the only problem I have is that I am not sure if that is a tagline or not since before today I had never heard the term before, but I hope I got it

Overcoming fear

Posted on by JTCHlife

What fears have you overcome and how?

I know the question is how to come your fears but I feel that the biggest fears I have in life is so big that I don’t even have the strength to overcome speaking up about them since I don’t know how to get started at them in the first place. I am not living in fear daily as it does not ruin my life and I don’t hate myself for it either but I feel maybe some of my days could be better if I was able to fix it. I am feel I am getting more and more brave to conquer them every day so guess I just need to take small steps but I wonder if my steps are too small and that maybe too few days left for it to happen. So guess I can answer half of this question by saying that you need to do small steps to slowly get the upper hand and hopefully you can beat it someday.

Broken bone?

Posted on by JTCHlife

Have you ever broken a bone?

Well I found this fun to answer since I have never tried to break any bones in my body in my entire life but the reason I find it funny to answer is because I am so clumsy that I can fall over the smallest things. I have also twisted my feet so many times that I just need walk 5mins more then it is as good as new. I have been having lots of other injuries in my life from having 3 extra holes in my head as I ran between swings and got hit, flying hitting a wall. I have also done so much and being so clumsy should have been my middle name. Hahahaha

Freedom

Posted on by JTCHlife

What does freedom mean to you?

I know I don’t reply this the right day but I decided to look at the prompts each day of the week between my post to check if anything is wroth writing about. I decided for this one, so what does freedom mean for me. Well I feel freedom means that people should be allowed or rather be free to do what they want in life as long they follow the laws and such of the country meaning I should be allowed to smoke inside my place without being blamed by others since if I do it on my own then it would not hurt other people. Of course if the law banned me from doing it then I should follow the laws no matter if I am home or not. Not sure if that makes sense or not but that is freedom to me

Brands

Posted on by JTCHlife

What are your favorite brands and why?

I am not sure if this one is easy for me because of my Asperger’s or if it is just a normal thing for me but I do not have a favorite brand of things except for one thing otherwise I do not care how I long in terms of clothing, if I like the color, motives and such I buy and wear it. The one brand I like a lot is Apple products since to me they just works and if you have a connection of things from them they just work so well together. I have not tried android much so I cannot say if it has the same connection just when I look at it from outside it does not seem like it. If I had to say 1 app that prevents me from switching to android then it is Redpoint which is an awesome app for boulders which I happen to do 3 times a week unless something ruins the schedule like today.

My most productive time

Posted on by JTCHlife

When do you feel most productive?

Well it depends on what I have to do since I like to have my things planned in a calendar and use reminders to focus during my day. I can handle surprises in my schedule just fine but it sometimes ruins my productivity. Another thing is if it is early in the morning or late in the evening, I think I can do most things both times but I am worst at the morning I would say since I can be a sleepy horse as my energy levels can be very low at times if too much have happened lately.

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

Posted on by JTCHlife

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

To me there is 1 aspect of a person that make person truly unique of all the aspects of a person to me even that I normally live after my motto: “I rather be weird than normal as if we all were normal, life itself would be boring” which means we are all unique since if we were not then all would be too similar in the world. My aspect is “being equal”, I feel you can tell a lot about how unique a person is by how a person sees people and how much the people around them needs to do to make a person equal. I feel the more you need to do to be equal with a person the less open minded the person is since we are all different, have different needs and requirements, have different life and dreams but if we all can treat the poor man the same way we treat the king or president then the world is going to be a better place so lets us not focus on what makes on different but more on what joins us together as one family across every tiny and big difference. So to me if you want to be unique then you need to be open minded and treat everyone like your equal.

Weather

Posted on by JTCHlife

Guess I will keep a lookout at the prompts that appear inside the jetpack app since even they don’t have anything to do with Asperger’s and being different then I feel they do like this one from yesterday.

What is your favorite type of weather?

My favorite weather is a bit hard to say since it depends on my mood and what things are going on in my life so decide to pick 2.

Sunny weather:

I love the warmth of a good warm day with sun to really make the day a wonderful day since you don’t have to think of what you wear and such. You can just go out and experience it all in one sense if that makes any sense.

Cold (rainy or snowy) weather:

I also love cold and snowy weather since the snow is lovely even that that is cold and sometimes a pain in the ass to remove. As long as I get to wear the right clothes I don’t mind it. The reason I love it as well is because in Denmark it allows you to spend time with your family and friends indoors. So you often play games, make buns and drink hot chocolate together. I miss doing this with my family but will hopefully do that again soon.
