The Unique Genome

On September 8th, Dr. Georgia M. Dunston spoke vigorously and passionate about the importance of each unique individual. She used her knowledge of science to intertwine the way we are physically made and devoted with the spiritual aspects of ourselves. What she had to say was truly inspirational and touching.


The heart of her speech revolved around the Genome. Going hand in hand with the Genome would be DNA that was described as the universal code of life. Genome is a set of 23 chromosomes contains DNA strand. Dr. Dunston had many definitions for a Genome. It was described as a record book of the history and the legacy of human time, a version of the human story. With the power of spoken word, oral tradition must be in sync with written The Genome is what makes us different from one another; even twins do not have Genome, because nobody can occupy the space as you at the same time. The purpose of each individual is sacred in life because no one is built like that besides you.

Dr. Dunston enforced the importance of positive energy and positive thought. The Genome forces you to think of yourself; focus on belief and think; what you think and what you say governs what you experience, words are energy words are creative. Hearing this really moved me. In essence it is very true because as a child I remember being told to be careful what I say, or be careful what I wish for, or even to just speak yourself a blessing. The strength and power of speech and /or thought dictate our lives. Or as Dr. Dunston said, “the word of your mouth and the meditation of your mind control your body.”
