Jiang Meixin: Her Adoptive Mother’s Wish Is for Her to Know Where She Comes From | 江美鑫:养母的心愿,是让她知道自己从哪里来
On the evening of 5 June, a quiet journey home began at Chongqing Jiangbei Airport.
Among the crowd stood Jiang Meixin and her adoptive mother, who had travelled from Iceland.
Now 21 years old, Meixin left China for Iceland as a child and grew up in a new family and a different world. Years later, she decided to look back towards the beginning of her story and begin searching for her roots.
Returning with her was her 74-year-old adoptive mother.
Speaking to the camera, she shared a simple wish:
She hopes her daughter can fulfil her dream — to know who her birth parents are and to understand where she comes from, so that she no longer has to keep searching.
There was no sense of loss in these words, and no sense of replacement.
Only the most simple and profound expression of a mother’s love.
She hopes her daughter will know that however life unfolds, she can understand her own story and move forward with a sense of wholeness and peace.
Searching for family does not mean rejecting the life one already has.
Very often, it is simply a natural question that arises at a certain moment in life: Where do I come from? It is also a way of reconnecting the past, the present, and the future.
And those who walk alongside children on this journey deserve to be seen too.

May every search be accompanied. May every return to the past lead to understanding and peace.

6 月 5 日晚,在重庆江北机场,一场跨越国界的归途悄然开始。
站在人群中的,是来自冰岛的江美鑫和她的养母。
今年刚满 21 岁的美鑫,从中国走向冰岛,在新的家庭中长大。多年以后,她决定重新回望生命最初的起点,踏上寻亲之路。
陪伴她回来的,还有已经 74 岁的养母。
面对镜头,这位母亲说出了自己的心愿:希望女儿能够实现愿望,知道亲生父母是谁,知道自己从哪里来。这样,她就不用一直寻找了。
这句话里,没有失去,也没有取代。
只有一位母亲,对女儿最朴素的爱。
她希望孩子知道,无论人生怎样展开,都能够理解自己的故事,带着完整与平静继续向前。
寻亲,并不意味着否定现在拥有的一切。
很多时候,它只是一个人在人生某个阶段,对“我从哪里来”的自然追问;也是希望把过去、现在与未来重新连接起来。
而陪伴孩子走上这段旅程的人,也同样值得被看见。
