Hi all, Long time survivor fan, Not just of the show but also life, I`am 40 years old soon to be 41, 6-6-66, Easy one to remember , I was adopted and the only people in life i know who are blood linked to me are my Daughter and Son and now a grandson, I`am currently trying to write a book about what it is like to grow up in life not knowing who or where you come from, When in society its such a big deal to so many,The book also deals with allot of other issues tho that are just as helpful to the non adoptive, a Carpenter by trade, i do have a college background in Arch Design 2 year degree, On a personal note as too who i am, I was a abused child physically mentally and sexually(1 time)enough tho thats all it takes but i watched my adoptive mom die in front of me at 16 been on my own ever since, i can count on one hand how many times i was told i love you growing up, so since 16 Ive had to learn what love was all on my own,besides becoming a father at a early age, And not raising my kids the way i was, I try-ed to do everything the complete oposite and going Thu marriage and fatherhood Ive learned allot as we all do, I`am a very out spoken person, i say whats on my mind when its there no matter the outcome good or bad,Allot of the time the brutal truth hurts most but for me i don't live life with regrets so i say what i feel when its time, i feel if you cant be honest with yourself you will never be with others, the eyes are the windows to the soul they never lie, i feel i can read people very well and thats only cuz so far in life I`ve had to survive Thu allot and only could trust myself Thu it all, but all of us survivors out there know this just as i do, well enough said for now..............
