Genes?

What if we were genetically predispositioned to become our parents? Like some of us are predisposition with heart disease? Or type II diabetes? Under the right circumstances, if we dont work to change our "lifestyle" you could turn into your parents.
What if the reason history keeps repeating itself was not a failure to learn but an inability to change? If history keeps repeating itself, does history then cease to exist? Does our past become our future, more or less?

Most of your life, every decision you ever made or didn't make every action that drove you to be something better, every action you took or decided not to take, everything you are, everything that made you into who you are was already planned out within you, in those double-helixed little segments, within every cell, was a blue print of who you were meant to be just like it contained a blue print of what your suppose to look like and how you're meant to function, and no matter how much you tried to be someone else, you just couldn’t, because your "hard wired" that way. All those little bits of double helixed DNA wrapped up- commanding a life form.

Nothing becomes humanity, we are not special, and we are not unique, were not like bloody little snowflakes. We are just different versions of our parents, like they were a different version of their parents, none of us are original; humanity is not original. Everything is just "a copy of a copy of a copy" within and insomniac's reality, sad really.

Then there are those geniuses, those guys are just a genetic mutation, they were never meant to happen. They say all genius is crazy, their right. History is proof, Pythagoras the mathematical genius created his own religion where beans were the devil, yep, normal edible beans. They say Michelangelo the great artist had autism, John Nash another mathematician and a noble prize winner had schizophrenia.
Seems to become great, you have to be a little dysfunctional and insane.

  1. Struggling with the preordained fates? :)

    We make do with what we can. Best we can. You could be the most gifted thief, but you always have the choice not to reach that pocket. You could be bipolar, and can use that in creating amazing -- or succumb to it. Genius is the other side of crazy indeed. Get over it. Then do some amazing with it. Or let it take over you instead. Choice is still yours, no matter what your genes.

  2. i think i will agree with Hning on this one, if we are all our parents then you wouldn't find siblings with different fates, and you wouldn't find sons or daughters outshining their parents because they succumbed to their genes' fate.

    however, we do in more ways than we like to believe turn into replica's of our parents, harboring the same opinions on certain subjects and having the same moral values.

    i like to believe that, if we choose to, we take the best in our parents and with enough determination, take the worse and make it better..

  3. Frogman,
    Im just saying, doesnt it kind of make sense? A little bit? In an insane kind of way?

    And you never know all the genes their discovering right now: the "God" gene, the "Selfish" gene... Makes you wonder!

  4. really good philosophy but i beg to differ. yes it's inevitable that we all have traits from our parents after all they raised us and made us (biologically in the womb) but their influence can only affect you so far. in the end you are an individual with your own lifestyle and choices despite your genetic history. again very interesting theory

    ps. i like the title and description of ur blog, its funny

    Hiii, thanks for your comment! Dont get any passer bys these days, you can tell by my lack of recent posts, lol.

    I know its very unlikely but science seems to have a decided pattern for everything, well almost everything... what if were a pattern? Humanity was just another scientific pattern..
