"I speak freely, not fluently" "I speak freely, not fluently" is a quote that has been stuck in my head for a while. I took from a comment on r/stutter, and have been thinking about it for a while now. To me, it's a statement saying that I'm not just a voice to be dismissed, and I'm unapologetic for the way that I speak. What do you guys think?
