There is pain in it all, and we all have to except that. Theres open and closed adoption, and in the end what happens??? You have children and birthfamilys trying to find each other. We have to learn to respect each others pain and know how great it would be that if we could all have children and be able to keep them. An there will be times in each of our lifes when we are bitter and not so happy about the whole thing. I'm greatful that my child has wonderful parents who are probable raising him well but that doesn't take away some of the bitterness on some of the issues we've had, or the longing for my child. But there will hopefully be a day for us. Its hard to explain but at times you do have alot of mixed feelings. Be hey we all have to keep living life and leave it in gods hand.
