| The trip |
I walked into Save-On-Foods, today. At the door, the security officer was a classmate from the Enhanced Security Training at Douglas College (2013).
He asked me if I still worked in security. I stated 'No'. (I had worked in corporate security at HSBC corporate headquarters, Vancouver).
I stated that I was now continuing with homecaring for my Mother, working as a professor and employed in social media.
Paraphrased:
Security Officer: 'I thought I saw you in the paper the other day. It looked just like you with the glasses, but then I thought, it could not be you.'
Conversation ended.
This person in the newspaper was probably not an 'academic lookalike' because the concept of me as a professor would have been believable for this security officer.
Perhaps it was an accused criminal or convicted criminal? This security officer knows that I am a Christian and would assume, rightly, that I was not that person.
I receive a few of these 'sighting reports' yearly.
Is this a 'curse of being adopted'?
How likely is it that my biological Father, (only 24 years old when I was born), is/was a serial donator to the public supply of adoptable babies?
This supply could also be via my biological Mother (29 years old at the time and less likely, in my opinion), and I know through research that both her and her younger sister gave up children for adoption.
Not the kind of 'public service' that would interest me. Although I certainly favour adoption over abortion!
I can see the satirical angle, as my own life is so radically different.
