I think eleni1017 has a strong point, although I do not know wat the question was and whether it answered it. But, eleni1017 has a point and i think it is true wat she said...well answered, eleni1017!

i don't think so. i think the experiences that are more recent impact us more. i think the person we currently are relies more heavily upon recent lessons we've learned ... or not. i do think most (but not all) of our experiences add up, but i don't think they are weighted equally. and, some of them aren't part of the equation at all. there are some things that affected who i was 5 years ago, but now, they don't matter at all. they have no affect on who i am at this time.

Perhaps, but mostly a vessel for our DNA to survive and procreate.

Yes, not only by our own trials in life, but those of others as well. As the old saying goes " Learn from your mistakes."

We are the sum of our experiences cast upon the genetic background which we inherited from our parents. Our genetic makeup sets the range of our possible behavior. Our experiences since the fusion of our gametes fine tune our behavior to match with the environment in which we find ourselves. Please bear in mind that this is a very simplified version.
