Changing your last name won’t get rid of the ache in your heart.
Don’t believe him when he tells you that you are making a mistake.
Remember that he never had a right in the first place.
You are worth a fight. Even though he never fought for you.
And that this man who raised you desperately wanted you to love me the way he does.
Being adopted really is the greatest gift you can receive.

Love,
Your 20 year old self.
5 years ago my birth dad found out I was being adopted. He told me I would regret it. He told me it was a mistake. It wasn’t a mistake.
