The Waiting Game

The Waiting Game

A Story by Vertigoingnowhere

Finding who you are is one of the great challanges in life

you dont learn it right away

But i might know who i am, but everyday of my life i have wondered where i came from

I could be German, Native Amercain, Italian, i Dont know.

The long forlorn wait to be eighteen is hard.

Going everyday not knowing half of who i am and where i came from

You see i was adopted when i was about three months old. It was a closed adoption which means my file is sealed and cannot be open for any circumstances until i turn eighteen.

It really is hard learning Genitics in Biology Class. I cant participait

When we made family trees in 5th grade it was hard for me.

I was told i have two brothers and one sister. they are probably in their thirties now.

 i still long to meet them. I wonder what my mother looks like on a daily basis

What she likes or liked to do. What was she good at

Did she suck at math like i do?

 I hate having all these Questions spinning around in my head and them not being answered. I guess all i can do is wonder for now.

I hate waiting, but FInding out who i am is worth waiting for

Finding out who you truly are can be a challenge. As you go through life, your experiences will unfold an epiphany of the true being that is you. Hang in there, your past will be revealed... Thank you for sharing an emotional write. :)
