Stuttering
When I was little, I use to have a stutter.
I was made fun of by family and friends.
Needless to say, I learned really quickly not to speak.
Well, not to speak until you were ready to speak.
I guess I never really felt prepared.
Why say something if it's not worth the effort.
Now, I get made fun of for being shy...
I wonder why?
Aren't they actually the shy ones? All I hear from them are mostly empty words.
Are they to shy to let people know what they actually think and feel and who they really are?
Do they even feel? Or do they think to much and that's what gets in the way?
Thinking about how they would be perceived, how they would be judged, how they might have to change.
The fear of change, the fear of changing yourself.
Because in that change you are losing a bit of yourself, or at least who you use to be.
You act out of fear that you as yourself will not be accepted.
Acceptance is a means of survival.
So we're not that different.
What's your stutter?
