Am thinking for quite some time, if there is a far far remote possibility that the desires and wishes from our fathers and forefathers may have the ability to travel through the genes and are still alive some where in a dark hidden corner of our DNA code? Off-course there is alot of instinctive behavior that we humans do instinctively, like craving for eating, copulating, survival stuff but i am not talking about that and I am also not talking about the desires that the parents associate with their sons and and daughters.I am talking about the desires that one wishes for him self, I am talking about all the free floating desires that my father and forefathers have wished to have for themselves;the ones that are not connected to any necessities in life; the ones which gives purpose and meaning to one's own existence, one's own identity, one's own life signature.
Like I always fantasize my father's world trip , which ended up half the world away, some where in the blue waters of Caribbean, i wonder if he may have thought of going even beyond, the whole way, and that specific desire somehow traveled and transmuted into some hidden corners of my genes, i wonder if his father had a similar dream. I wonder if my grandfather, wanted to be a globe trotter. I wonder if that is why i am in Africa.....
(I wish if I can know all about those hidden corners)
