It's really amazing how even after 23 years you can recognize family just by the eyes across a room filled with people. I have to admit the emotions got to me too when I met her....it was quite a moving moment. For all the issues people have had....and all the stubbornness....in the end none of it was really important. So many years wasted just because of egos and momentary anger.
She's been through so much by herself that its understandable why she's a little harsh.....the death of a husband, 3 brothers, 1 nephew, 1 niece......after all that death around her, it's remarkable that she was able to maintain her sanity.
I can't really describe the emotions and thoughts that I went through.....when I heard that my eyes change color just like my father....when I heard that the way I walk and the way I look at people is exactly the way he used to do.....I've always been told some of these things but the intensity was so much stronger this time. It's unfortunate that we spent so many years without a link because of a few minor issues. It's unfortunate that one person already passed away longing for such a meeting.....I'm glad things have changed :)
