My Less than Final Decision

I have decided to postpone the search for my birth family.

I am happy and sad. While I have an insatiable craving to know my roots I have a great understanding that I am only one among millions of adoptees on this planet at one time. To find one's roots as an adoptee can be an honor given to many, a burden to some, but a privledge given to few. Only other adoptees will understand this.

Its time will come.

I have been blessed with so much. What is unique is that I have ties to four families which is pretty damn cool if you ask me!

To be blessed with these circumstances is unique and will be my story for now.. I pray for the gazillion other adoptees out there who struggle now and years from now. Especially those my age. Someday I wish to help them in their search. A favorite quote/ prayer of mine sums up what I think about helping other adoptees..

"Oh God thy sea is very big and and my boat very small."
