Lastr week I went to 8th Street and Harrison for physical therapy. An office worker there talked to me. She asked me where I was from. I told her that I came from Guang Dong, China.
"What county?" the office worker asked.
"Da Bu," I told her.
"What town?" she asked.
"Da Ma," I told her.
She said that her mother had studied at a middle school in Da Ma. Then she told me her mother's name, Liao Ni Man.
I was surprised to hear this name. I told the office worker that her mother had been my classmate!
Unfortunately, the woman said, her mom had passed away in 1989.
After I met my middle school classmate's daughter in Oakland, I said, "The world is really small!"
