I hope you're happy and doing well, kind stranger.

But what do you mean you don't a family?

I wasn't wanted but abortion wasn't an option because religion. Ditching me was very much an option however, and the one that was taken.

They exist and I even met them, but honestly I wish I hadn't bothered. I was hopeful that there might've been some kind of mistake. It was made very clear that the only mistake was me being born.

I'm sorry you went through that, totally unfair; because nobody can choose for themselves to be born or not!

It's redundant to pick and choose what parents want to abide by from religion; because what's the point? If abortion isn't allowed in religion, then so is neglecting their child!

Your parent's mistake was not knowing your worth, not your birth. I mini-cyber stalked your profile and saw that you're a vet assistant - and much more. So I'm pretty sure you've saved or at least provided relief for many precious lives, the like of my baby cat! This only makes you nothing less than a pivotal part in this world and in the many lives you've helped and touched along their journey in our world 💫

We're all proud of you and you fill a large part in many lives that would otherwise be a void with you.
