"Space" is the first element followed by air, fire, water, and earth. Each with their own characteristics. Ohe characteristics of space silence but also paradoxically with sound since sound travels in space. Taking on a quality of spaciousness is like when you are open minded, allowing, and willing to try things. <br /><br />I have a husband with AS and also a 7 year son with AS. I see the need for that sense of spaciousness in them very often. They seem to need the pauses where they are not taking in anything at all- kind of like that sense of sound and silence that you are talking about, It's soothing I suppose.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10219571408345827511noreply@blogger.com
