What I got from family (traits)

Tweet

I read this quote recently. "“She herself is a haunted house. She does not possess herself; her ancestors sometimes come and peer out of the windows of her eyes and that is very frightening.”" It is apparently a quote from a book by Angela Carter entitled 'The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories." I don't take this quote in it's most literal sense, as it's quite easy to see that it's meant to be frightening words from a frightening story. I choose to interpret it as a good thing. That is to say, I choose to think about all the traits and mannerisms that I can attribute from family. While in the coming weeks I plan to do the 23andme DNA test (complete with health traits), I can surmise a few things already that are known hereditary traits. I have a birthmark that is in the same position as my great uncle. I've talked in length before about how some believe them to be the mark of how you died in previous lives. I also am quite pale. That isn't necessarily a hereditary trait, but there are several others with the same characteristics. Whether it's due to anemia or our ancestry, or a combination of both, I do not know. I am not anemic as far as I know. There are other things like a history of heart disease and anxiety that I know are hereditary traits. I am curious to see what the 23andme test will say about other possible diseases or traits to do with physical appearance. I am also interested to see how their nationality markers differ from that of ancestry's. Like I said, it will still be a few weeks yet. I want to ensure that I have a steady flow of income coming back in, as I have begun to get more hours at work. Anyway, what do you think to the quote I posted above? How do you interpret it?
