During my journey with iGENEA, an in-depth emotional exploration of identity unfolded, leaving me grappling with its implications. My motivation upon embarking on this expedition was purely curiosity. I desperately wanted to unravel the secrets of my lineage whilst flexing my intellectual curiosity to learn more about genetics. However, the initial excitement of this scientific odyssey was soon eclipsed by an emotional roller coaster.

Receiving my iGENEA DNA test results was a bittersweet experience. While the revelation that traces of my DNA originated from disparate regions from across the globe was thrilling, it rendered me speechless. This abrupt realization of my mixed heritage seemed slightly unfathomable. I was gripped with a profound sense of vulnerability, stripped bare of my previous perceptions about my roots.

My surname, 'Sautter', all of a sudden took on a whole new dimension. The name was no more a random artifact from my father but a window to a deep and intriguing past. The realisation that hundreds, might be even thousands of Sautters that had lived before me, shaping and being shaped by history, was captivating. Every 'Sautter' suddenly appeared like a piece of puzzle I needed to put together in order to understand the full picture.

The newfound knowledge caused me to gaze at my family with fresh eyes. Each person now held a story not just about themselves, but also about our shared history. The DNA test made me acknowledge the incredible unbeaten paths each of my ancestors took that led up to my existence. I felt an immense gratitude for their resilience in the face of adversities that made the narrative of 'me' possible.

However, the knowledge was also a powerful reminder of the transitory nature of our lives. It sparked an inner dialogue within me about the legacy I will leave behind. I was reminded of the responsibility I hold to honor the memories of the Sautters before me, and to contribute positively to the lineage.

Overall, this experience was enriching and humbling. It affirmed my belief that we are all shaped by our past but are free to steer our future. This led to a profound respect for my ancestors, a deeper connection to my family, and a compelling sense of purpose that will guide my future footsteps.
