After 42 years of wondering and 14 years of searching, I've finally found the woman who gave birth to me. A close friend delivered my letter and my mother called 48 hours later. Two weeks ago, I met her for the first time. I was halfway up the walk to her door when she rushed out and we gently collided in a hug that felt like no other. She asked me to take off my sunglasses. I did, and when we looked into each others eyes, I could feel both our souls shift. Breathlessly and with tears welling, she simply said "yeah." We've talked or emailed every day since. Life seems brighter, all happiness amplified. My life has changed profoundly and will never be the same.
An life-long quest fulfilled, a new journey begun.
