How much of us is shaped by genetics? I dont want to get into the Age-old Nature versus nurture debate though i have always leaned towards nurture. But for me, I guess in a way, genetics also means family. There are ways in which we resemble our parents and grandparents and uncles and aunts. Maybe it is genes. or maybe it is the fact that we have grown up with those characteristics and imbibed them without deliberation. But here is what I blame on my genetics.
1. Uncontrollable hair
2. Tendency to grey at a young age.
3. Impatience
4. The need to talk continuously at times
5. The going in by one ear and goes out the other ear.
6. Hatred of cooking
7. Love or rather need of arguing
8. Sarcasm
9. Teasing anybody and everybody
I might think of more...
PS: funny thing... apparently i look exactly like my father and like my mother. And my sister. And my paternal grandmother.
