Mixed Kids Reunion
Holly, sitting next to me, also has a caucasian mother and Thai father. She and her brother and I spent a lot of time together at the beach and Sports Club.
She brought her daughter who is on my right. Holly has a career as a model here in Bangkok. Ironically she is also eager to nail how materialistic and shallow the culture is here. People are constantly assessing each other's net worth by looking first at your bag, then shoes, then the number of gemstones on your fingers, she says. Not to mention the car you drive.
She has suffered distressing medical problems and had surgery for an aneurarism and now a year later is suffering mysterious headaches. Her resignation and bleak perception of life is so profound it is surreal. If she wasn't so spiritually grounded through her Buddhist practice, one might mistake her energy for that of the walking dead. All her family members seem to be suffering ailments of their own and her brother doesn't communicate with her. She has no idea what he does for a living or how he spends his time. Their mother left the family when they were kids so they weren't able to see her again until they were adults. This story struck all the other caucasion wives as tragic.
