When I saw his face on that video on FB, I knew, I just knew something momentous was about to happen. I didn’t know how or why, but something about his tortured voice and tormented features drew me to him. Maybe it was some kind of weird familiarity, because I recognized that face. I knew it as well as I knew my own. And even though the guy in the video was a stranger to me. I felt like I’d known him all my life and destiny was finally bringing us together.
My parents had never hidden the fact that I was adopted and through the years I’d wondered about them. The man and woman who had created me. But my mom and dad are gone now and it’s just me. I felt lost… adrift… So, maybe it was time. I could try to find them. Mother’s Day was coming up. Maybe if I made a video? Just got out how I was feeling, would that be enough? So, that’s what I did. Never knowing where it would lead. To her.
