Henriksson - the Asperger from Sweden

Hello and welcome to the wondrous blog of Henriksson. If certain terms in the title confound you, let me explain. Henriksson is a common surname in Scandinavia. Asperger's Syndrome is a, well, syndrome that according to Wikipedia is “one of several autism spectrum disorders (ASD) characterized by difficulties in social interaction and by restricted, sterotyped interests and activities”. Sweden is a country with a population 9 million that is known for its high taxes.

But who’s Henriksson? The short answer is that I am a 16 year old male. The long answer could be quite hard to write. I am not someone ordinary, I can tell you that. The first impression you might have if you’ve met me for the first time is that I’m quite quiet. I have a growing suspicion that I might have two separate personalities that kinda blend together, though I can’t prove it yet. It’s downright hard to tell who I am, only those who are very close to me (in the relationship towards me kind of sense) have a vague idea who I really am. It’s quite hard to communicate with me – I will seldom start a conversation, if you say something I will often reply “what?” like I didn’t hear what you just said even though I did, a quite annoying habit I can’t quite shake off. I will dreamingly look into the far distance when idle. I am an expert at doing nothing. Others do a lot of things, but I prefer to just think. Thinking, in the sense of walking back and forth in a room. Maybe it’s just me. Maybe I’m not really qualified at describing myself.

I try not to be partial to anything, but prefer to critically examine everything. I am a bit of an "agnostic atheist", not because it "benefits" me in any way or something, because I don't know the answer to everything but I still see that a "diety" or higher power has no evidence at all.

My political affliction? I’m a bit of a… utopist. I want to have a perfect world where there are no countries, religions etc. and where individuals are raised in an environment free from indoctrination. Everyone has equal conditions, and nobody has to work but instead is free to do practically whatever they want. “Respect, positive action and humanity” galore. I don't know quite how it's going to work, but I'm working on it. Maybe the word “communist” springs to your mind.
