I remember my own struggles as a stutterer, when I was a teen. I can now see what helped me: Self-concept. Rather Faith in my SELF. In my darkest moment, I could not doubt that there was something in me which was more than my body and brain, my thoughts and emotions, my frustrations and shame, my ‘worth’ as perceived by others or even by myself. My essence which transcended my physiology, my moods. Time and again, I will come out of the ‘dumps’ and try yet again. To say, that I was a ‘fighter’, would probably be a mis-reading. I was not fighting anything. I just listened to a tiny voice from within, which said- you are not your moods, you are not your tongue, you are neither your defeats, nor disappointments. These are just the waves. You are the underlying Ocean. The Spirit. When I would be depressed, sitting quite and thinking such thoughts would invariably help me. Later, I discovered that not only me but everyone is that Spirit. That anyone can get in touch with It and get the help. Lastly, I discovered that you don’t have to be ‘religious’ to get in touch with what is your essential nature. It is always there, for everyone. You don’t have to earn it. It is there. Waiting. sachin
