The iGENEA DNA Test & a Journey of Ken: Exploring the 'Baker' Identity
Family name Baker
iGENEA DNA test is a remarkable tool to explore one's lineage, connecting the dots of heritage and personal identity. A fascinating experience, it gives a newfound clarity and depth to understanding the significance, and nuances of one's surname and its precise implications in the lineage. In my case, it brought freshness into my understanding of being a Baker.
Personal identity and heritage are closely woven realities that, I believe, shape who we are at a core level: our ideologies, our relationship with the world, our values, and beliefs. While I always had a general understanding of being a Baker and its significance in my lineage, undergoing the iGENEA DNA test added a new layer of clarity to these connections, altering my perspective and my emotional bond with my heritage. Although this newfound understanding may not make drastic changes in my day-to-day life, it is remarkable to see how it enhances my comprehension of personal identity as a mix of velvety depth and nuanced gradients versus the former view of fixed, concrete elements.
