There was a time when I was carefree, but I cannot remember when that was. I know it was. Never did I think I would or could find myself in the pumpkin patch. This will be my blog to air it all out, maybe for my kids, or someone. Wanting to be wanted is the struggle of the adoptee.
This is a story, my story, of my experience as an adoptee: a child of divorce and survivor of child abuse.
I never thought I would make 50, and maybe I won’t. I’m not trying to get ahead of myself, but wow, here I am, looking through the doorway of my next 50 years. I am a husband (at least as of this writing), a devoted father, and a general overall lover of life. Where did I learn that? Nature or Nurture? I think nature. Your environment either nurtures your true nature to flourish and thrive, or it squelches it. I have experienced both of these, and it is a big reason I am such a people pleaser. Mostly, at my own expense.
