I've heard stories of birth parents who just simply don't want to build that bond with their birth child. And so I'm glad that your adopted parents were open to having relationship with you. And I pray that God will heal the abandonment and any rejection that you may feel on the inside, even though it's been so many years, I pray that still they are willing that healing takes place in your heart. And I pray that the relationship between you and your birth mother will grow

I know, like, sometimes with some adoption agencies, they might allow you to still keep in contact with your biological family, but I know that in your case, that was not the case. You got in contact with them when you were grown. And so I come in due for that. And I think it's really beautiful that you are starting to have family relationships with your sister

But because in my area, a lot of people dealt with the whole not knowing who their father was or was being raised by just their mom. It didn't hurt me too much to not have my father and not know who my father was. But I feel that the older I get and the more my maternal side of my family is separated and grown very little and distance, the more I want to pursue just knowing who he is
