I am a deep believer in blood memories. I believe that a section of memory is stored within our DNA - vital things, like our origin ect.

I few years ago, I discovered that, going back as far as we can within records, I have ancestors from Minsk, and Kiev, in Russia! When I found out, I thought, 'That explains my love for Russia!' As, I have always been a lover of the country.

A fun little fact; I was born in 1991. The USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, better known as Soviet Russia, collapsed, in 1991 - the year I was born - becoming split into 83 Federal subjects.

Memories in the DNA would mean they'd be passed down from generation to generation, and thus keep vital memories literally hidden within the blood.

I could also place this on a Russian spirit, my love for "my" motherland inherrited within my host spirit. Maybe the two are connected, you know, a certain type of blood attracts a certain type of spirit. It would sound logical to me; but then again, that is only me.
