Family Lost, Family Found.
I have always had a sense of loss. It seemed that I needed something, someone. I just couldn't put my finger on it. I wanted to find my Mother. She gave me life. I didn't know if she would want to know me. I wanted to know her. I prayed for help and I really didn't know how to go about the task of finding someone from so long ago. I liked genealogy and tracing peoples roots. It was kinda odd I couldn't do the same for myself. I would try but it was like there was a brick wall. No leads no past. When God was ready He let me find her. I was so afraid. I called and got a recording so I left a message. I told her who I was. I used my birth name she gave me so she would know it was really me and not just a wild prank or something. It was the most wonderful day when she called back. I found I had 5 sisters and I was the only boy. In one days time I went from no family other than my immediate one to a very large family. I was so overwhelmed. My mind was reeling. It was so uncanny how much we were all alike. I love my lost family with all my heart and I can't stop thinking about them. I do hope that I can get to go and see them all. It's gonna be a great homecoming. I love talking to Mom and my sister. There is no gift that has ever been as precious as finding my family. I really just sit and wonder.....I get choked up and have no words to explain what I feel. I walk around and I feel like I have a confidence I never had before. I look forward to a life with my family talking and laughing and sharing each others love. Miracles do happen and this one is mine.
