I Know You Tried


Dear Sandra,
I am not mad at you. Not a bit. Despite all that you did and didn't do because I know you tried. 
I know you tried to love me. I know you struggled before making a decision to let me go. I know there were nights you thought about me. I know you never really forgot about me.

I know you tried.

But I also do know that things don't always work out the way we always want them to and we often do things without thinking about the consequences of our actions. I know that you regret ever sleeping with him and getting pregnant. I know you were confused and I know that you were angry at yourself. I also know you tried your best to make us work. 
I know you tried.
I just hope that you also know that letting me go was a good decision... in the end, it was the best decision you made for me. You spared me of the pain and, this one's gonna hurt, you spared me of having to live with you.
Sandra, thank you for giving me up for adoption. I am happy with my family.
