Right, and I think genetics is pretty low on the list. But I'm not saying it's so much up to you as up to the environment you grow up in.
Can’t argue that . My environment wasn’t great but that comes from my own perception and from a very young age .
Maybe it wasn’t that bad as things go but from my view it was horrible times . There’s no doubt that it shaped , or I should say that it that steered my life in set directions .
Now I can only wonder at how things would be different . Maybe I’d be a bit better off but maybe not . I would agree chances are I’d be a happier person during those times and that could definitely could have lead to better opportunities.
Unfortunately I beat myself down and my reactions to things are very much a result of my environment or is just how I’m wired to respond?
I turned out ok I think . I’m still very misunderstood at times and I’m very out spoken. I didn’t often use kid gloves but now I do my best to do so , up until a point . Lol
As to the DNA part I feel I’d still be within the same bubble or sphere of the type of work I do .
Now in my head I should rule the world Pinky ! Lol
That’s one reasons of my DNA search . Do I found my mom and all her children. Birth mom passed away before I could get info on whom my birth father was . She didn’t want to release that info and took it with her to the great beyond .
I have an idea with lots of help from DNA matches but even those families information aren’t enough to positively identify who dear O’l Pops was .
As result I don’t know what type of work or successes his off spring if he had any had .
That unknowing bugs the crap out of me . Lol
