YOU ARE AS OLD AS YOUR MOTHER

4146

Well, in essence you really are. You see, females are born with ALL the eggs they will ever have. As a result, the egg from which you were created was already present in your mother's womb when she was a fetus.

But another surprising fact to which I have already inferred in the previous paragraph...

Not only was the egg from which you were created present in your mother's womb when she was a fetus, but both your mother AND you were present in your grandmother's womb.

Granted, the previous information omits the part your father played in your creation, but at least much of the essence of who you are is as old as your mother.

(I will turn 94 next year).
