Masks Of Self Exploration

The masks that are seen during the Halloween season have unlimited possibilities. While trying on an identity, a moment is seized to explore another identity. Almost from the first words that the Halloween season is here there is a rush of excitment to find and try on another identity for a brief period of time. This has frequently been attributed to self exploration at subconscious psychological levels.

Discovering birth families is a route of self exploration. After taking off the masks given through adoption other identities are found. Unlike Halloween, the identities found have permanent answers. The ripples run through self exploration and far beyond.

The fear of removing the masks to find the truth hiding behind them can be frightening. Memories that are made from the season can last for a lifetime. The horrors and mysteries of the possibilities of biological families can easily define sense of self. That can explain why the adoption search is a lifelong journey of self exploration.
