Interlude

I do not have any reason for sharing these; also, I write impulsively, and this is me sharing some of my random thought with you.

Sometimes I wonder, if there are other people like me, like me in the manner in which they communicate, or in the manner in which I approach problems, issues or whatever. I’m pretty much the lazy type, always looking for the shortest possible path to solutions.

I never classified myself a stutterer, but recently I realized that I stutter; I alway used to stutter anyway but I never really noticed it; mostly because it isn't re-occurent.

Here’s where it becomes a problem for me; when I’m trying to pass a point across, especially on a topic I’m so passionate about, and the other party doesn’t seem to get me, or chooses not to; it gets frustrating, really frustrating and I realize then that I start to miss my words, I begin to muddle my words, and it goes downhill from there.

Got any tips for me?
