Dear Marija, If I doubted? Did I do anything else, is my question to myself, and the answer is no. I never did, nor do I do, anything else. I was sure once, meaning that I was silent (or almost) for nine years, between 13 and 22, I was sure that I never could speak, doing myself, my mind, or ideas justice. When a doctor told me that I will never quit stuttering completely, then I began to doubt, and in doubt, you know, is a healthy uncertainty, in the doubt there is a chance, not solely a risk. But a change is needed of course, beginning from the philosophical standpoint when seeing a bottle of wine with half the possible amount of wine in it. Is it half full or half empty? My doubts about myself and me is my joy, the drive forward if you like. Like for today; I will be interviewed on national radio network this afternoon and of course I doubt if that will work well. But I am sure of the minimum outcome; I will learn some, I will develop some. What more can a person ask of life? You know, a question opens doors. An answer closes them again. More open doors! Regards Anders Lundberg
