Summary

In this quote, the speaker reveals that they only started speaking well at a late stage in their life, around 15 to 17 years old. They attribute this late development to various psychological factors such as experiencing the trauma of war, growing up without the support of their family, and having a street kid lifestyle. The hardships and challenging circumstances they faced during their early years hindered their ability to communicate effectively.
