Autistic Artist..

Autism may be defined as...
a variable developmental disorder that appears by age three and is characterized by impairment of the ability to form normal social relationships, by impairment of the ability to communicate with others, and by stereotyped behavior patterns

People suffering from autism usually have significant "limitations" (hope I am not being insensitive for using such a word). They need more care/concern/attention/understanding from all of us actually. But there are quite a few isolated cases of immense talent. May I share with you one :

有一位作者这么说:

人,经历了生生世世的轮转,
难免夹杂了许多的习气毛病。
我们不是不想改,而是一直没有彻底地进行,
也没有十足的慧心与勇气。

每每在下定决心,忏悔清净时,
我们也在同时编造很多理由,
来为自己保全身份面子。

就这样,经历了无量岁月,
仍旧是「斩草不除根,春风吹又生。」

Autistic people immerse themselves in their own world (of thoughts), which is no different from any of us...
Personally, I think that it is a matter of guiding them into our common world and sharing "their world" with us... :)

That's quite a neat way to think about it.
Needs so much patience.
