I don't care anymore what ppl think Today I am trying to not care what others think of my speech. They don't pay my bills or buy my food. They don't hold my hand when I cry. So why should their opinion matter to me? I'm not about to let no finger-picking, butt-scratching baboon make me feel ashamed about myself any longer. Let's hope this vibe lasts, because I need it. I'm so over worrying how others perceive me because of my stutter. I DARE someone to ask me about my stutter. Better yet, I DARE someone to make fun of it.
