" I wish I wasn't able to talk at all instead of dealing with stutter. " I have had this thought when I was younger. Wouldn't it be easy if we could just Whatsapp our conversations? But as I grew older, and gained more confidence (to at least speak more in front of my friends), I have been able to share feelings, thoughts, jokes, and all sorts of friendly garbage with them, and I am glad that I dohave some voice even if it buffers most of the time. You can't exchange emotions that clearly on text chats. That feeling of exchanging words, creating emotions with them, bringing joy and sadness and anger and fear, it's all worth it. I cannot imagine being mute. I am so lazy I probably won't even learn the sign language and get rekt for the rest of my life.
