10 December 2006

I've recently arrived back home (wherever that is) from my trip to Pakistan. For anyone who cares, this was my second attempt to get to know my biological parents, people I have thought about for each and every day of my 26 years of existence, and quite frankly people towards whom I have rather confused feelings.

I know that everything I write about my adoption could be written better, and at some point in my life I hope to have time for a rewrite. However, for now I am planning on posting edited excerpts from my day-to-day thoughts during my trip to a country I wish I could leave behind. As I've learned, there are some things that become more painful the more you run away from them.

10 December 2006 was the day I left London, a little less emotional and a little more prepared than the first time. My first stop, my biological aunt's place in Karachi. She's been good to me since the truth came out. I think she's my favourite biological aunt.
