With both my parents being alive still I have not inherited many "things" yet, so we will have to talk about traits.
I have got determination & a strong work ethic, but is that really inherited or is it taught to a person? Whether inherited or created by me I am thankful that I have those traits.
I have inherited my father's eyebrows that join on my nose. On a girl it is not a good look but for some odd reason I am made thankful for it, because I see that James has that too. In fact I did a layout a few years ago about his eyebrows. I see James & can see the link that links him, me & my father together. I am also thankful for it because really Brent looks nothing like me, his personality is more like mine, but to any stranger Brent would not look like my child. It is nice to know that at least one child has something physical that has a bit of a resemblance to me.
The journalling reads:
Your eyes are a link to the past.
Those bushy eyebrows that join on the bridge of you nose are a legacy from your grandfather & me.
You may get teased.
You may get told that eyebrows joining together are a sign of evil.
Don't believe a word of it.
They are a sign of your heritage, a link to the past.

I also have bushy eyebrows that meet in the middle. Well, they don't anymore because I tweeze constantly!
I was teased a LOT about it and it was very hurtful. So I can't say I would be grateful for this particular trait! However, I commend you for being able to see the positive side of yours!
What a great thing to be thankful for...and I love the layout you did!
Inherent or learned is always an interesting topic. I will muse over it some more and let you know what I think :) I know that I believe behaviours are learned, not inherent..... Thanks for your blog, enjoying it a lot
