R and I met today at 10 am at our usual meeting venue (Nehru Park). Since it was only two of us, we couldn’t do any exercise as such.

My journey of stammering started so early in life that I really don’t remember the age when I became conscious of that. I was a bright child but could never express myself fully (to my satisfaction). My eagerness to express myself lead to day dreaming. I was half of the time day dreaming of achieving […]
