Daddy
July 21, 1973

The above letter is from my biological father, who denied me a life inside wedlock. Do I feel abandoned? Yes. Do I feel deprived of a family of siblings? Yes, I do. Do I resent my siblings who were raised Christian, and yet, have NOT brotherly love? Yes! I do. Do I forgive my father? Yes, I do. Do I forgive my siblings? Yes, I do. Have I forgotten the sorrow of exclusion? No, not yet.
