Hmm

I have had well meaning people tell me that I need to forgive because of anger.

I have abandonment issues. I have separation anxiety.

I realize that people can guess about Adoption issues and unfortunately are misinformed.


I realize that these are suggestions as non Adoptees don't get it.

What I do know that I have no anger towards my Adoption experience.

I don't dwell on what happened. I don't like what happened . I have chosen to not dwell on it.

Every once in a while I am triggered by abandonment issues. I have learned to recognize them . I have learned to communicate what would help me.

I am choosing to live differently.

I choose how to respond to triggers in a orderly manner.

I can't change peoples mind.

I do know I know what I feel.

I get angry when people ignore me and don't listen.

I get frustrated when people don't listen to me.

What matters is that God knows my heart.
