    fantasiamrealms, genetically, we have the potential to share half our genes; this is how i understood the quote from the pippa gregory book (even though i doubt either ms gregory or ms boleyn had any idea of mendeleyvian genetics). james haldane also wrote that if you must lay down your life (and remember that he was living through the bitterness of "the great war," which wasn't the great glory promised by the tales of past wars), he considered it would be possible to calculate how many of your relatives (genetic co-carriers) would have to be "saved" by your death ... two siblings ... four cousins, etc. this is all statistical, of course. BUT ... i also recognize that the potential to be my sister -- in a sort of 50:50 crapshoot sort of way -- is in me, too.



    this writing was much longer when i first wrote it, considering our choices and what made us diverge from each other. but it was pedantic. ;) a trait both my sister and i share, in different ways!



    fantasiarealms, i will look -- thank you for your many contributions to my life ... and to my wellbeing!

    She's not half of you, unless you're twins, dear auroramaru. She sounds nothing like you, but are you guys twins? Even if you do consider her "half" of you, I would venture to suggest you check out this vid...

    seek out episode 5 in season one "The Enemy Within"



    If you're half of each other, I think it's like this then;)
