You raise a good point, I accept that stuttering will be a part of my life forever. Though I am still young and learning things, I am confident that life will give me enough "booster rockets." I just need to keep my eyes open. Whether that be a beautiful love, nice-fullfilling job, seeing my kids group up. But for now, my current passion is to understand how I went from being completely hopeless to freely talking about it. I think this will help others. Because of this, I need to ask: What are the top 5 things that helped you, and how hard was it to maintain them?
