This might be a dumb question. I recognise that a lot is in our (epi)genetics but I have usually felt a lot of it was nurture.
But there have been times I find out something about a relative from another side, common interests or hobbies for example, that are fun to ponder.
Does anyone understand what I’m trying to convey?


Genetics do play a role in our personality. Nature and Nurture components.
My daughters sense of humour and her smirk is exatcly like her grandfather’s and shes only seen him a few times in her life.
My son rubs his feet together as a self soothing / relax thing. His Grandfather used to do that in his arm chair. He died a decade before my son was born.
