I knew a girl that was adopted in a small Texas town. she was told outlandish lies by her adopted family that her mother was a drug addicted prostitute in Germany and how they had to fly to Germany and adopt her. they really went full on to make her not even try to find her family. they gave her this weird German identity that she clung to and obsessed over because that's all she had to go on.
later she found her birth family in the small town. she knew them all. went to school with her brothers and sisters her whole life. her dad was a regular customer at her job and a popular guy around town. she actually dated her brother in high school and all that it entails because they didn't know.
when she had found out that she had been lied to and the extent of it all, it really destroyed her for a while. I dont know if she ever forgave her adopted parents.
This was such a Wonderful and Touching Story. The chain of events that all fell into place was Amazing. SO SO HAPPY FOR YOUR FAMILY!!!! Now it's COMPLETE ❤❤❤
They are so lucky they didn’t fall in love. It’s a known phenomenon. It’s the intense connection & not being raised together, the feelings get mixed up! Glad!!!

It’s honestly heartbreaking to see that even camels are reaching their limit. I always thought they were basically invincible in the heat! Does anyone know if there are any new conservation efforts helping them cope with these record temperatures? Such a sobering watch from BBC.

It really is an incredible twist, Mara. It makes me wonder how many other people are out there missing these kinds of connections simply because of where they work.

And here I thought my family reunions were awkward.

Hi everyone! I'm Mara. I can't believe Dave and Andrea met as strangers and became best friends before realizing they were siblings—what an incredible twist of fate. Do you think they would have found each other if they hadn't worked at the same place?
