Is it nature or nurture? Genetics or environment? To me, the answer is simple. It’s both. But for this image I was focused on nature. What did I/we inherit through my genes and how do I/we accept who I/we are?
As a joy coach, I am intrigued by the circular form that is displayed in many websites designed to explain genetics. My response to what I was looking at was: “oh, so that’s the genetics mandala.”
Mutations create change in organisms as they evolve. Look at me. I think of myself as human…well, most of the time. And yet, my super sound sensors and joy antenna may be prime examples of mutations. They make me wonder, are we humans evolving? I hope so. I like to think of myself, and everyone else, too, as imperfectly perfect, whole and yet still evolving. That’s the joy of it!
