What part of Rudolph did you relate to? The not fitting in?! The search that we went on?? Wow...guess I never thought how an adoptee could relate to Rudolph!!! I find it fasinating what we relate to as children concerning our feelings with adoption. I was ADDICTED to the movie Annie as a kid. I would rewind the part in the beginning when she was singing the Maybe song. hmmmmmm has me thinking about a couple things.....

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself. ~Ralph Ellison, "Battle Royal"
