Is it possible that we are all related? Is it also possible ( considering how the DNA works, we get 50% from and 50% from Dad and the same from our parents, the same from our parents parent and so on) that by our DNA we could have brothers and sisters all over the world? Is it possible that there is nothing like a pure race? How would you feel, if you were told your ancestors were from other nations you hear of and know nothing about or hate their heritage, culture, language, ect?
Wondering why am asking all these questions right? Yesterday, in school, I was stopped by a young man who said to me ” Am sorry, but are you Ghanian? You look so much like my cousin Efia and she’s Ghanian. I haven’t stopped looking at you, for a second there, I thought I was loosing my mind”.
I smiled and said to him ” No am not”. When he left I began to ponder on what he said. This is not the first time someone is asking me if am from so so place. It’s also not the first time someone is saying, you look like my brother, sister, cousin, or do you have a twin. Am sure this has happened to you as well right?
What if I do have a cousin in Ghana? What if my ancestors once lived there before they migrated to God knows where? What if I do have some connections with other part of the world? Would I still be indifferent to my fellow man? Would I still hold on to my opinion about people and their heritage knowing that I may be related to them? These questions I may never get an answer to.( Smiles).
Now, am beginning to believe that we are connected one way or the other. Am beginning to believe that our ancestors linage must have stretched to other nations. Am beginning to believe that I may not be a pure African after all. I may be half Togo, half Ghanian, half Nigeria, half Chinese ect. It’s possible considering the fact that we can not purely trace our linage, unless we were to all run a DNA test and have the whole world come for that test. ( Which is so impossible)…
If we are all conscious of this fact, then I believe there will be less violence in the world today. I believe our orientation and mindsets towards our fellow man will be that of love, empathy, and filled with so much understanding.
How did we even get so separated? How did we become strangers to ourselves? How did we become so torn apart? What are even fighting for? We are supposed to be protecting each other and not destroying one another.
We are all loved equally in the eyes of God, regardless of our race, language, and religion. As long as he is concerned, ” We are all one”.
Can we learn to love without being biased in our judgements? Can we all try to stop the violence, knowing that there is a 50% chance the person being violated could be related to us?
We can be so undivided if we live with an open mind. God expects us to live in peace with all men “Romans 12:18 (KJV)Â If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
Am sure, when God said this, he meant it.
Let’s stop the violence, hatred, injustices, and start seeing ourselves as one. As people that needs each other. We are all entangled:https://whitneyibeblog.wordpress.com/2017/01/07/entangled/?preview=true.
*We are all related…….
With God all things are Possible …Nice Boo!
Yes Nkem with him all things are possible. Thank you dear for sharing with us. Am glad you dropped by.
biblicaly we are all related and it seems science has confirmed this fact. so i fully agree with you, we are all related and it would be awesome if we could stop all the violence. but, since we are animals, violence seems to be apart of us. and it seems as humans we have become the most violent towards other human. excessively, i feel. not many animals are as violent towards their same as we are.
btw…i would not mind calling you my relative. 🙂
good post.
Yes Buddy you won’t be wrong calling me your relative. You never can tell. Am just tired of the violence and injustice in our world. There’s more we can achieve together if we only knew how to love. Thanks dear for sharing with us.
Excellent. Too many people forget the simple stuff: “Thou shalt not kill” for example.
Yes sir and we tend to remember the difficult ones. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks for sharing. This is awesome. We are all related. We are all connected. We are all equals!!
Yes we all are. I could even be related to you( smiles). Thank you for dropping by and sharing with us. Happy valentine’s day
I would be fine with that. That would be awesome!! You’re welcome. Thank you and the same to you!
Great post! It’s true that we all related somehow and it is high time we realise that we are born equals. We need to understand that we are all the same and this may actually solve most of the problems and violence in the world. Let’s hope love prevails this Valentine’s Day https://thehomemakerssite.wordpress.com/2017/02/11/we-are-humans-all-human-race-as-one/
Btw, I love your stuff!
Awwwww, thank you Gul, I am praying that the violence and problems in this world will end soon. I will visit the link you sent me. Am really glad you stopped by. Thank you once again for your response.
