Excluding the fact I never had the chance to making love with Oskar Schindler my biggest regret is never having my own children.
I have been very lonely through my life and I’m sure a child would have brightened my life but it wasn’t to be. I have dedicated my life to thoughts of everlasting peace and exterminating racism and hate. I never did get married which was very sad for my mother but I never met the right girl, I just never met a woman I clicked with. I AM NOT AN OLD QUEEN!!
Don’t be sad for me this isn’t about that, I have plenty of great guys who I’m friends with and they have made my life complete. But one thing got to me, not having a small person who I could mould into a non-racist, bi-sexual activist.
All that changed last year when I adopted a Filipino boy and his mother who I met in a chat room. They became my daughter and my grandson and I really love them. They don’t speak English or Hebrew but the love between a grandfather and a grandson does not need words to express itself in peaceful love and affection. I am raising the boy as a Hindu as I think it’s important he understands many faiths. He is a lucky boy, a Catholic by birth, living as a Hindu in a Jewish country with Muslim neighbours and to top it off the man living upstairs is gay.. apparently.
My life is complete now I have them.
