Because of bitterness, Gladwell and her siblings vowed never to be concerned with the dad, and they stayed for many years without seeing each other.
"Do not take anyone or anything for granted. Life has a way of humbling anyone under this sun. This is my biological dad, who absconded duties caring for his offspring. However, we vowed not to be concerned about him," she narrated.
However, the lady disclosed she had to make a personal decision to let go of the pain her dad caused, and she forgave him.
After that, she visited her father at their home and ironed things out which has really brought her piece.
"I forgave him and thanked him. The scenario prepared my other siblings and me to face life boldly and be humble and kind to anyone.
Sharing the story on her Facebook page, the humble lady said everything happened for a reason, and no one should be judged by their past mistakes.
"You only have one biological dad, and I have met mine after many years face to face. Everything happens for a reason. As a middle child, I made peace with our papa," she added.
