October 14, 2023May 6, 2026 RJ Walters

I am moving along quite well with my Artsy project and its Mosaic wall. With this post I give you “Piano Flowers“. I guess I have to explain the title a little. 🙃 Here in my RetCom (retirement community) they … Continue reading Artsy Mosaic #4 – Piano Flowers

Just A Stroll

October 13, 2023July 30, 2025 RJ Walters

I thought I would simplify today, and give you a few pics of my stroll around my RetCom home. Even though it is getting more strenuous now, it’s always a pleasure to take that 0.67 mile trek. Especially on these … Continue reading Just A Stroll

Peace At Last…

October 11, 2023May 6, 2026 RJ Walters

Before I explain the title of this post, I must fill you in with a story (of course I do). I struggled most of my early to mid-adult life trying to figure out how to fit in, especially when it … Continue reading Peace At Last…

Locked Out Of Life…

October 10, 2023October 10, 2023 RJ Walters

There have been many times that I have felt I was locked out of life. I just didn’t fit into the world around me. I was convinced that my handicaps just locked the door I wanted to go through. I’m … Continue reading Locked Out Of Life…

October 6, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

I am always on the search of different ways to explain things. I don’t know why, but the title words above suddenly popped off the top of my mind. I made a brief visit to my RetCom’s social hour a … Continue reading A Waddling Gait…

Be Good, But Not Too Good…

October 5, 2023October 4, 2023 RJ Walters

Capitalism is a strange beast, well, at least the U.S. version. If you serve your market too well, the regulators will destroy your company. That seems to be the case with what is going on with Amazon lately. As yet, … Continue reading Be Good, But Not Too Good…

Surviving Formal Education

October 4, 2023July 30, 2025 RJ Walters

I have read several books about Albert Einstein. He was such an interesting character. It seemed that much of my early life was similar to his. I know he had problems with his primary education. He simply got bored with … Continue reading Surviving Formal Education

God, Please Don’t Make Me Live To Be 100!

October 2, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

One thing about living in a RetCom (retirement community) is that you know all the “old people” celebration days. A week or so ago, it was “Centenarians Day”. Six people in my RetCom are celebrating being over 100 years of … Continue reading God, Please Don’t Make Me Live To Be 100!

Domain Invasion…

September 29, 2023September 29, 2023 RJ Walters

I don’t know why the words in the title above suddenly popped into my conscience, but I love it when that happens. It challenges me to think about a subject that I would not have otherwise. I see domain invasion … Continue reading Domain Invasion…

Be Focused & Persistent

September 28, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

One of the first “big boy” books I read at the age of 12 was a biography of Albert Einstein. That book has lived with me ever since. In my focus on Autism and Asperger’s, I have seen it frequently … Continue reading Be Focused & Persistent

September 27, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

I don’t know if I am going to skid sideways totally worn out into my death, but I do have several body parts that will arrive in that condition. I have tortured my knees since an early age, so they … Continue reading What A Ride!!

Autistic Statistics…

September 26, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

When I came across these two words in an article I was reading, the poet in me knew I had to write a post about them. The article was from one of my favorite Medium authors by the name of … Continue reading Autistic Statistics…

Tired Of Doing Nothing…

September 25, 2023May 6, 2026 RJ Walters

It’s been a while since I put out a quote from one of my main heroes in life. Will Rogers speaks to me like no other person. He died almost a dozen years before I was born, but he left … Continue reading Tired Of Doing Nothing…

Embracing The Transition Into Old Age

September 21, 2023July 30, 2025 RJ Walters

Life is made up of transitions that all of us who are fortunate enough will go through. I won’t go over all of them here, as that would take too much time. The one this post is about is the second to last one, which is old age. Continue reading Embracing The Transition Into Old Age

Over Stimulation…

September 19, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

It looks like it is time for another Autism quote here on RJsCorner. One of my jobs in life is to help you understand the width and breadth of Autism. The more you know, the better you will understand and … Continue reading Over Stimulation…

Words, Words, Words…

September 18, 2023September 18, 2023 RJ Walters

I was one of those weird kids who actually enjoyed reading Shakespeare. I think Hamlet was my favorite. Among other things, I loved trying to figure out the strange words Shakespeare used. But, none of this is the subject of … Continue reading Words, Words, Words…

Rest In Peace??

September 17, 2023July 1, 2026 RJ Walters

Go to any cemetery around and you will find letters RIP abundantly. Of course we know that they stand for “Rest In Peace”. But, with my “Question Everything” mantra, I don’t see the point? When we are dead and in … Continue reading Rest In Peace??

No One Stays With You Permanently

September 15, 2023July 30, 2025 RJ Walters

While it’s true that about half of all marriages in the U.S. end in divorce, that is a deceiving statistic. For the purposes of this post, I want to concentrate on the last one on the list. 45%  of marriages … Continue reading No One Stays With You Permanently

September 14, 2023August 28, 2025 RJ Walters

This post was brought on by yet another half-sheet announcement in my RetCom IN-box about the latest resident to pass away. It seems there are so many people who worry what their epitaph will be. They want their tombstone to … Continue reading My Epitaph
