[Sons to Glory!]

Yes, in one sense a person has their own life, but their father is the source, the initiator of their biological life. The father's and mother's genes come together and the offspring gets a mix. In my case, I completely got my body type from my dad, basically down to a fraction of an inch. And, even though he didn't really raise me, my wife says I have many mannerisms that look just like him . . . even a unique walk we share (which she thinks is a hoot). So I think that's a pretty good example of having my dad's life and nature. I'm predisposed, in many ways, to resemble him because of this life he passed to me.
