What a beautiful video. Unfortunately I don't agree with the principles of the organization that created it, otherwise I'd send this to everyone I know. Really lovely.

Principles of the creating organization aside (which I do not belong to) I specifically thought those involved in adoption would appreciate it most. But I also think it puts a more positive light on adoption for those people who might not otherwise give it a second thought

Thanks, stargazer. It's beautiful in it's simplicity.

What's so wonderful is that all of these people are so varied...so completely different; yet they have this common bond.

I WILL be passing this on to people I know.
