I made a card, because I thought that was more beautiful and I also wrote it myself. (I had help with the translation, though.) The card looks crooked, but I assure you that was the fault of the camera work, not my actual card.) :) Inside the card I wrote my birth name, birthdate, and place of birth. It then says that I was adopted to Americans. It says that I am looking for my birthmother and gives her last name. I then say that I am sending this same letter to many women, all with the same last name, in hopes of finding the one who is my true birthmother. HOWEVER, I know that it was her because I had her name and had done all the other footwork (please see my previous blog entries, if you don't know what I am talking about.) Then I write that I will be in Seoul until the the third week of December, so she should contact me soon, if she wants to contact me at all.I dropped it in the mail, also with some help, the next day.
Seeing that the city is only 60 miles from Seoul, I figure the letter should have arrived Saturday or today, Monday. If that's the case, then from today onward... I guess I just wait.
So here I am, waiting.
But she better hurry up, because I might be leaving soon... I already quit my job.
Congratulations! That's a big step! I shall be thinking of you while you wait to hear... Even NOT hearing tells you something, but it would be nice to have some kind of response from the other end of your card.
ReplyDeletehi n., i was at messiah yesterday for the posada and rev. carolyn was telling our table about your adventures in korea. i met you once the week before you left (perhaps one of the few korean women you've ever seen in the pews). she told me about your blog and it's a really great read! i like hearing about your adventures in eating and culture there.
ReplyDeleteDidn't know you were leaving so soon. Maybe you will read this in California. Sorry to not meet with you :( but really enjoyed your chronicle of your journey. I must ask if you would give a summary Guest Post when you get back and settled. I will post your story on my blog. Young Adoptees can learn so much about coming back to the motherland.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, as you sort out your thoughts and feelings. I have several people who are afraid of taking the next step in Searching or coming back. If you summarize from the time you began to think about returning, how your parents dealt with it, your thoughts, etc. in how ever many words you want and list couple of photos. I have you on my blog list but Guest Post will also help get other to read about you and your journey.
God Bless you,
Don

ReplyDeleteI wish you that in 2010 you’ll live sweet and lovely moments.
I'm not sure if I ever updated the readers, but my birthmother never responded. There are so many reasons why she might not have responded that I cannot blame her. However, I'm still disappointed, as you can imagine.
