Cross-posting this from the animal rescue thread. It's an interview with Temple Grandin - some of the same quotes have already been posted here. It's a great insight into the different ways we perceive, process and use information. The interview is here.

I know I'm often puzzled by the way people perceive my words. At times I'm much more aware and able to communicate in a way that's easily heard. At other times I'm truly surprised at others' reactions, and the way I perceive others.

Life. It's a learning process. *sigh*
