I’ve started following another blog by adoptees – Land of Gazillion Adoptees. It is seemingly more organized and purposeful site than most of the others that I’ve come across.
Today, I read one of their recent postings about the question people ask – “Where Are You From?”. I know that I’ve written a poem somewhere or ranted about this before (though I can’t find the posts at the moment), so it was rather comforting to find another article with the same issues and another attempt at expressing how it feels when others innocently ask this question.
I still am working on my own answer to this question in a way that satisfies the questioner and doesn’t cause further questions into my personal life than is normal for someone who isn’t adopted….
