Year for Reunions

2009-07-11T23:38:00.004-05:00

I just love it when I hear of new birth family reunions. I just read a blog entry on intent.com of two sisters reuniting using adoption.com . At one point, I was looking for five siblings and a grave for my mother--father unknown. That was due to bogus information from my official nonidinfo from NY state. Instead, I found my birth mom, dad and a cool as can be sister. But thru my original

We have acknowleged the bad incident, accepted the dismal truth/lie, we have given up. Although we are in fact "trying" to be possitive, we have been defeated by some schmuck or group of such. Maybe even by a concept, rule, unjust law, or misconception. Life is far
