RE: A newbie writer joins the Steemit Community. Let the autobiography begin, shall we?
Hey there, I'm Oatmeal Joey Arnold, and love your photo and I love history, especially ancestry history and name origins. And love the Lion King because of the love story and also the story related to family and community. Inception makes me think a lot and is very interesting.
I'm Dutch, Scottish, Irish, German, English, French, but was born in America. By blood, genetically, I may be related to Hitler. But politically, I'm more opposed to Marxism than Hitler was. Likewise, for you, your ancestors can be from the north, but that does not mean you have to be whatever they want you to be, politically, in what you believe and think.
It's a pleasure to meet you here Oatmeal Joey Arnold, history has always been a favourite subject of mine, though I try not to make it too obvious. But oftentimes I fail at that ha ha.
I'm rather proud of my ancestral background. I would be a direct descendant of the fourth king of Joseon's older brother, if not for the fact that it branches off at my grandfather since he's the second son of his father who is a direct descendant, so if my great uncle does not have a male heir to continue, then I would be able to claim this heritage. So, it's not like I'm ashamed to think that I could've been a North Korean, had my predecessors chose not to move to the South during the Korean War, but rather being careful not to align myself to any political views based on my wording.
